  The Zondervan Reflective Audio Study series provides a unique audio learning experience. Unlike a traditional audiobook's direct narration of a book's text, Rembrandt Is in the Wind: Audio Study include high-quality live recordings in which the author teaches the content of the book, discusses important points, and introduces additional sources. The end result is an engaging audio study focused on learning. 
  Did you know Vincent van Gogh only sold one painting during his lifetime, and that during the last three months of his life he completed an average of one painting every day? 
  Did you know that Michelangelo's David is covered in a dusting of human skin? 
  Did you know Caravaggio murdered several people while he was painting some of the most glorious paintings of Biblical scenes the world has ever known? 
  Rembrandt Is in the Wind: Audio Lectures is an invitation to discover some of the world's most celebrated artists and works, while presenting the Gospel of Christ in a way that speaks to the struggles and longings common to the human experience. 
  These lectures are part art history, part Biblical study, part philosophy, and part analysis of the human experience; but it's all story. These sessions traverse the chronological arc of art history in the West, from the Italian Renaissance on. Some artists are well known, others not as much. But together, the stories of their works raise important questions about humanity's hunger and capacity for glory, and all of them teach us to love and see beauty.

  Brace yourself for a roller coaster thrill ride as you join the Tattoo the Earth 2000 summer tour of America, the most insane tour ever inflicted on a continent. 
  Featuring twenty of metal’s biggest bands, including Metallica, Slipknot, and Slayer, plus Filip Leu, Sean Vasquez, and the world’s best tattoo artists, these renegade outsiders pissed off all the wrong music business heavyweights but left delirious inked fans in their wake. Caravan of Pain is a rip-roaring music business underdog tale: compelling, hysterical, and cautionary.

Told with candor and humor by the tour’s creator, Scott Alderman, and illustrated with memorabilia and never-before-seen photos, Caravan of Pain is a story of inspiration, persistence, and the dark side of following a dream.

  The shocking, tell-all memoir from '90s popstar and heart-throb formerly known as KavanaBorn in Manchester in 1977, Anthony Kavanagh's rise to fame was stratospheric, scoring a record deal at the age of just eighteen and winning the much-coveted Smash Hits Male Artist of the Year Award in 1997, all the while achieving top ten hits, appearing on countless magazine covers, performing on Top of the Pops and gigging alongside the Spice Girls. The stuff that dreams are made of.  But Anthony - or Kavana as he came to be known - was also trying to keep his sexuality a secret while navigating his way through an industry where image was everything; where his success depended on him having to be exactly who he wasn't.What followed was a dark and dangerous spiral into addiction, an illness that would insidiously follow and baffle him for years to come. Pop Scars is a story told with fearless honesty that's at times as funny as it is heartbreaking, chronicling the highs, the lows, the self-destruction and the chaos of hitting rock bottom and then finding out that rock bottom has a basement.Thirty years on, Anthony is ready to tell his jaw-dropping story. Pop Scars is a book about teenage stardom, fame, addiction, grief and - ultimately - survival and sobriety.

  St Gall Cathedral and Abbey Library

  St Gall cathedral was built in 1755–1770 as the church of the Benedictine monastery, which was dissolved in 1805. In the Middle Ages this church, erected on the site of the hermitage of St Gallus, was one of the most important monasteries in the western world. Today the Abbey Archive and Abbey Library still possess invaluable documentary evidence from that era. The Baroque monastery complex testifies to the flourishing of the prince-abbey in the 17th and 18th centuries. The church, like the adjacent abbey library, built after the plans of Peter Thumb and decorated by the best South German artists of the day, forms the monumental conclusion of a long series of Baroque abbey churches realised by Vorarlberg master builders. St Gall’s abbey district is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the collections of the Abbey Library and Archive are included in the UNESCO World Documentary Heritage List.
