Light from Heaven
by Christmas Carol KauffmanJoseph Armstrong's father showed more concern for his farms and horses than he did for his wife and children. Work was first. Mishaps were dealt with harshly. Praise was a foreign language. The family suffered cruel scorn, rejection, and deprivation. All the while, Bennet Armstrong hypocritically portrayed himself to others as flawlessly pious. The Armstrong home was a potential hotbed for bitterness and emotional desolation. Thankfully, a devout mother bridged the gap, loving her children, praying fervently for their safety and salvation. Annie Armstrong's prayers were heard. Joseph came to trust his kind heavenly Father who helped him love and forgive and rise above his circumstance to a life of purpose and peace. This story, sometimes heartrending sometimes heartening points to the one true hope for all man's miseries, Jesus Christ, the true Light From Heaven.

Light in Germany: Scenes from an Unknown Enlightenment
by T.J. ReedGermany’s political and cultural past from ancient times through World War II has dimmed the legacy of its Enlightenment, which these days is far outshone by those of France and Scotland. In this book, T. J. Reed clears the dust away from eighteenth-century Germany, bringing the likes of Kant, Goethe, Friedrich Schiller, and Gotthold Lessing into a coherent and focused beam that shines within European intellectual history and reasserts the important role of Germany’s Enlightenment. Reed looks closely at the arguments, achievements, conflicts, and controversies of these major thinkers and how their development of a lucid and active liberal thinking matured in the late eighteenth century into an imaginative branching that ran through philosophy, theology, literature, historiography, science, and politics. He traces the various pathways of their thought and how one engendered another, from the principle of thinking for oneself to the development of a critical epistemology; from literature’s assessment of the past to the formulation of a poetic ideal of human development. Ultimately, Reed shows how the ideas of the German Enlightenment have proven their value in modern secular democracies and are still of great relevance—despite their frequent dismissal—to us in the twenty-first century.
Light in the Dark: The Last Sanctuary from the Holocaust
by Robert MarshallAn extraordinary true story of survival and courage through the Holocaust.Poland, 1943. It was the last refuge of the desperate, a warren of sewers underneath their city. Above, as the Nazis destroyed the ghetto of the city of Lvov, a small band of Jews escaped into a grim network of tunnels, living for fourteen months with the city's waste, the sudden floods, the fumes and the damp, the rats, the darkness, and the despair.Their only support was a lone sewer worker, an ex-criminal who constantly threatened to leave them. Many died; some falling into the rushing waters of the river, some simply of exhaustion. At one point the survivors found themselves trapped in a chamber, filling to the roof with storm-water.Yet survive they did, even infiltrating the camps above to find their missing relatives. When the Russians liberated Lvov, they emerged from the sewers filthy, bent double, emaciated, unrecognizable... but alive.This powerful story based on a long series of interviews, and a hitherto private diary, creates a blazing testimony to human faith and endurance.

Their school is literally a hole in the ground, where they and other slaves of all ages gather to form letters out of sticks, scratch letters in the dirt, and pronounce their sounds in whispers. Young Rosa is eager to learn the letters and then the words, because after the words comes reading. But she must have patience, her mama reminds her, and keep her letters to herself when she's working on the plantation. If the Master catches them, it'll mean a whipping-one lash for each letter. No matter how slow and dangerous the process might be, Rosa is determined to learn, and pass on her learning to others.

Light on Lucrezia (Lucrezia Borgia #2)

Now, married for the second time at just eighteen, she hopes for happiness with her handsome husband, Alfonso.

And in the days when the Borgias ruled Italy, no one was safe from the long arm of their power. Even Lucrezia. In this compelling story of a beautiful woman caught up in a tortuous web of fear and love, Jean Plaidy sheds light on the much maligned Lucrezia and vividly brings her to life.
Light on the Mahabharata: A Guide to India's Great Epic (The Oxford Centre for Hindu Studies Mandala Publishing Series)
by Nicholas SuttonIn this in-depth, engaging guide to the Mahabharata, Hindu Studies scholar Nicholas Sutton explores the central messages of the work&’s core narratives and passages of instruction, demonstrating how the questions the text poses are as relevant today as they were to those who composed this mighty treatise on human existence.The Mahabharata is a truly vast work of early Sanskrit literature that reflects on a wide range of issues which have concerned people throughout different epochs. Within the context of Indian culture, the significance of the Mahabharata cannot be overstated, as its themes, characters, narratives, and preoccupations have reverberated across the region for centuries. It is well-known that the whole of the epic is structured around a central narrative that tells of an ancient conflict between two branches of the same royal house, the Pandavas and Kauravas. Yet it is also a clearly didactic work that addresses the fundamental meaning of human existence. In Light on the Mahabharata: A Guide to India&’s Great Epic, Nicholas Sutton examines the multi-faceted manner in which the Mahabharata does this, elucidating the diverse and multi-layered answers the text offers to the many questions it raises. Sutton&’s book explores why the main characters behave in the manner that they do, the vision of life that motivates them, and the extent to which they are able to prioritise enlightened wisdom over narrow self-interest. Unravelling the Sanskrit epic&’s myriad lines of reflection, Light on the Mahabharata demonstrates that the questions the work poses and the range of answers it suggests are as relevant in the present day as they were in remote antiquity. OXFORD CENTRE SERIES: The Oxford Centre for Hindu Studies Publishing Series offers authoritative yet accessible introductions to a wide range of subjects in Hindu Studies. Each book in the series aims to present its subject matter in a form that is engaging and readily comprehensible to persons of all backgrounds – academic or otherwise – without compromising scholarly rigour.

EXPERT AUTHOR: Nicholas Sutton has spent the four decades studying, teaching, and writing on the Mahabharata. Sutton is the Director of the Continuing Education Department of the Oxford Centre for Hindu Studies, an academy for the study of Hindu cultures, societies, philosophies, religions, and languages. He received his PhD from Lancaster University, writing his doctoral dissertation on the Mahabharata, and currently writes and tutors online courses on Hindu religious traditions.

Light without Fire
by Scott KorbThe first extended look into the nation's first Muslim institution of higher education, Zaytuna CollegeLight Without Fire closely follows the inaugural class of Zaytuna College, the nation's first four-year Muslim college, whose mission is to establish a thoroughly American, academically rigorous, and traditional indigenous Islam. Korb offers portraits of the school's founders, Shaykh Hamza Yusuf and Imam Zaid Shakir, arguably the two most influential leaders in American Islam. Along the way, Korb introduces us to Zaytuna's students, young American Muslims of all stripes, who love their teachers in ways college students typically don't and whose stories, told here for the first time, signal the future of Islam in this country. It's no exaggeration to say that here, at Zaytuna, are tomorrow's Muslim leaders.
Light without Heat: The Observational Mood from Bacon to Milton
by David Carroll SimonIn Light without Heat, David Carroll Simon argues for the importance of carelessness to the literary and scientific experiments of the seventeenth century. While scholars have often looked to this period in order to narrate the triumph of methodical rigor as a quintessentially modern intellectual value, Simon describes the appeal of open-ended receptivity to the protagonists of the New Science. In straying from the work of self-possession and the duty to sift fact from fiction, early modern intellectuals discovered the cognitive advantages of the undisciplined mind.Exploring the influence of what he calls the "observational mood" on both poetry and prose, Simon offers new readings of Michel de Montaigne, Francis Bacon, Izaak Walton, Henry Power, Robert Hooke, Robert Boyle, Andrew Marvell, and John Milton. He also extends his inquiry beyond the boundaries of early modernity, arguing for a literary theory that trades strict methodological commitment for an openness to lawless drift.
Light, Privacy, and Neighbors: Windows in Late Medieval and Early Modern London (ISSN)
by Janet S. LoengardDensity of housing in late medieval and early modern London could make access to light and privacy incompatible, provoking neighbor disputes. This book examines the Custom of London on light, which reflected centuries-old ideas about the right to have, or prevent neighbors from having, windows.The volume explores the background of the Custom and its enforcement by legal action in the Mayor’s Court and by less formal action in the Court of Aldermen, discussing the effect of decisions on the architecture and appearance of the City. It investigates the reasons behind householders’ strongly held feelings about windows, with the need for light and the status evidenced by glazed windows balanced by an insistence on privacy, fear of intruders or accidents, and expense. Over time amendments were made in practice and the Custom survived the Great Fire of 1666, reflecting the continuity of long-held ideas about property rights and acceptable behavior.With both legal and social themes, the book will be of interest to historians, architects, city planners, lawyers curious about the background for modern law on physical privacy, and anyone fascinated by the history of London.
Light-Horse Harry Lee
by Charles RoysterIn Light Horse Harry Lee, Charles Royster tells the story of a man whose career embodies the visionary promises that inspired the American Revolution, as well as the inability of the revolutionary generation to put all its ideals into practice. The man is Henry Lee--soldier (nicknamed "Light-Horse Harry Lee"), statesmen, landowner, historian of the young republic, member of one of the oldest and most eminent families of Virginia--who throughout his life endeavored to realize his dream of a free and prosperous America. Brilliantly examining Lee's ambitions and achievements, Mr. Royster makes us see how, both during the war and afterward, Lee continually risked himself in the service of his vision and how again and again he failed to win the victories he sought. He shows us Lee as a young officer in the Revolution, fighting valorously and skillfully, earning renown as a patriot and a military genius--but leaving the Continental Army before the war's end, sickened by the violence of battle and disheartened by his helplessness to mitigate it. After the war, we see Lee determined to play a central role in the new nation's peaceful growth--serving in Congress and as governor of Virginia, promoting expansion and development through his own private business ventures. And we watch as Lee's desperate pursuit of wealth and order for America ends tragically: in his political defeat, bankruptcy, and exile from the land he fought to free. Tracing Lee's struggles and reverses in his efforts to implement the promises of the Revolution--in his defense of the union, his opposition to Jeffersonian Republicans, his investments in land, his repeated warnings against war--Mr. Royster shows how, in extreme form, Lee exemplified in his strivings the public aspirations of America's most politically creative era, as well as his generations collective failure to attain its vision of national grandeur and individual happiness. And it is this failure and the resultant disappointment, Mr. Royster argues, that in large part opened the way to disagreements over the nature of the Union, culminating, finally, in the Civil War--in which the South was led by Light-Horse Harry Lee's son, Robert E. Lee.
Light-Horse Harry Lee: The Rise and Fall of a Revolutionary Hero - The Tragic Life of Robert E. Lee's Father
by Ryan Cole"Light-Horse Harry blazes across the pages of Ryan Cole's narrative like a meteor—and his final crash is as destructive. Cole tells his story with care, sympathy, and where necessary, sternness. This book is a great, and sometimes harrowing read." —Richard Brookhiser, senior editor at National Review and author of Founding Father: Rediscovering George Washington Who was "Light-Horse Harry" Lee? Gallant Revolutionary War hero. Quintessential Virginia cavalryman. George Washington’s trusted subordinate and immortal eulogist. Robert E. Lee’s beloved father. Founding father who shepherded the Constitution through the Virginia Ratifying Convention. But Light-Horse Harry Lee was also a con man. A beachcomber. Imprisoned for debt. Caught up in sordid squabbles over squalid land deals. Maimed for life by an angry political mob. Light-Horse Harry Lee’s life was tragic, glorious, and dramatic, but perhaps because of its sad, ignominious conclusion historians have rarely given him his due—until now. Now historian Ryan Cole presents this soldier and statesman of the founding generation with all the vim and vigor that typified Lee himself. Scouring hundreds of contemporary documents and reading his way into Lee’s life, political philosophy, and character, Cole gives us the most intimate picture to date of this greatly awed but hugely talented man whose influence has reverberated from the founding of the United States to the present day.

Lightbringers of the North: Secrets of the Occult Tradition of Finland
by Perttu Häkkinen Vesa Iitti• Examines the significant figures and groups of Finland&’s occult world, including their esoteric practices and the secret societies to which they were connected • Investigates the relationship of nationalism and esotericism in Finland as well as the history of Finnish parapsychology and the Finnish UFO craze • Looks at the unique evolution of Freemasonry in Finland, showing how, when Finland was still part of Russia and the Masonic order was banned, adherents created a number of other secret societies Finland has long been viewed as the land of sorcerers and shamans as well as being identified with Ultima Thule, the mystical farthest north location of ancient myth. Exploring the rich history of Finnish occultism, Perttu Häkkinen and Vesa Iitti examine the significant figures and groups of Finland&’s occult world from the late 19th century to the present day. They begin with Pekka Ervast, known as the Rudolf Steiner of the North, who was a major figure in Theosophy before starting a Rosicrucian group, Ruusu-Risti. They look at the Finnish disciples of G. I. Gurdjieff, revealing how Gurdjieff himself fathered a son with the group&’s leader at the leader&’s request. They explore the grim case of the cult of Tattarisuo, who used body parts and the Sixth and the Seventh Book of Moses in their nightly rituals. The authors investigate the relationship of nationalism and esotericism in Finland, telling the stories of Sigurd Wettenhovi-Aspa, who thought that Finns were the root of all Western civilization, and of Yrjö von Grönhagen, who became a close friend of Heinrich Himmler and Karl Maria Wiligut. They explore the history of Finnish parapsychology and the Finnish UFO craze. They look at the unique evolution of Freemasonry in Finland, showing how, when Finland was still part of Russia and thus the Masonic order was banned, adherents created a number of other secret societies, such as the Carpenter&’s Order, the Hypotenuse Order, and the Brotherhood of February 17. The authors also examine how, following Finland&’s independence from Russia in 1917, lodges began to reappear and were an important hub for spiritualist activities and groups such as the OTO and AMORC. Unveiling both the light and dark sides of modern esotericism in Finland, the authors show how, because of its unique position as partially European and partially Russian, Finland&’s occult influence extends into the very heart of left-hand and right-hand occult groups and secret societies around the world.
Lighten Up, George
by Art BuchwaldIn the latest collection of his syndicated newspaper columns, Art Buchwald shares his philosophy of life in the 90's. Examining life under any administration can be difficult, but Buchwald sheds light on America during the Bush years with amazing and hilarious precision. But the columns are much more than a book about politics. He also covers the lottery, the tyranny of the age of FAX, tabloid TV, the outrageous cost of college tuition, gun control, thumb sucking, and the hidden benefits of smoking (nonsmokers... live too long and to this day they are a tremendous drain on the country's resources).
Lighter Than Air: The Life and Times of Wing Commander N.F. Usborne RN, Pioneer of Naval Aviation
by Guy WarnerNeville Florian Usborne entered the Royal Navy as a cadet in 1897. In the years between him joining up and the outbreak of the First World War, he engaged in a huge number of enterprises and endeavours. Praise and respect garnered in accordance with his achievements all helped to establish his reputation in later years as an 'irreplaceable' pioneer and a leading light of early British airship design. His fertile imagination and enterprising spirit fused to form a dynamic personality, able in wartime to draw up countless schemes in an effort to outwit the enemy. His chief task during the Great War was to dream up new tactics and designs to combat the Zeppelin menace, perceived as one of the most damaging threats of the entire conflict. He was also deeply involved in the design of the very successful SS and Coastal Class airships; indeed, during 1915 he was actually appointed Inspector Commander of Airships at the Admiralty. Unfortunately, his illustrious career was destined to be cut short in 1916 when he was killed testing a prototype of one of his own designs. This new biography seeks to shine a light on an overlooked pioneer of early aviation and it does so in entertaining and reverential style. The importance of Usborne the pioneer is made plain; as one of his contemporaries commented upon his death No one can talk of the early days of British airship design without mention of his name and work. A personality was lost on that February day which was irreplaceable.

Lighthouse Ghosts and Legends
by Nina CostopoulosFrom the Book jacket: There is something mystical and romantic about the soft glow of a lighthouse spinning out across the ocean. Beyond that protective light, however, many of America's lighthouses are plagued by a dark history of vicious storms, violent shipwrecks, and, in some cases, even murder. Today, the ghosts of the past still linger in the lonely corridors of many American lighthouses, making their history known. In 1899, Muriel, the sweet-tempered daughter of a sea captain disappeared from the Yaquina Bay Lighthouse in Newport, Oregon, leaving behind only a small pool of blood and her white handkerchief. Today, she is seen on dark stormy nights and has been known to bolt the lighthouse door, allowing no one in-not even those with a key. The sounds of former Captain William Robinson's footsteps and the methodical tap of his cane can still be heard walking the corridors of the White River Light in Whitehall, Michigan. Ernie, the ghost of the former keeper of Ledge Light, near New London, Connecticut, polishes brass, swabs the decks, leaves tools about the lighthouse, and rearranges books on bookshelves. Following on the heels of Crane Hill's bestselling Lighthouse Ghosts, Lighthouse Ghosts and Legends brings fans of watery hauntings more of their favorite lore. Author Costopoulos weaves eighteen tales of mystery surrounding some of America's best known beacons, including St. Simon's Island, Alcatraz Island Light, Owl's Head Lighthouse, Hendricks Head Light Station, and more. Covering the extent of coastal America and the Great Lakes, Lighthouse Ghosts and Legends runs the gamut of sprites, spirits, mysteries, miracles, and madness.
