Sinopse

Two Sermons Preached in the Parish Church of Nonington, Kent, January 17, 1864, is a remarkable anthology that captures the spirit and fervor of mid-19th century religious discourse. The collection features a pair of sermons reflecting a tapestry of theological reflection and moral philosophy. These sermons combined examine pressing spiritual questions and societal issues of their time, offering a profound exploration into the minds navigating faith during a period marked by swift change and a burgeoning awareness of modernity. The duality of different sermonic approaches paints a vivid picture of Victorian religious contemplation, leaving an indelible impression on the reader as it oscillates between solemnity, encouragement, and guidance. The noteworthy sermons included in this anthology are penned by two influential figures of the era, Edward Hoare and Herbert James, whose combined insights paint a dynamic portrait of ecclesiastical thought. Both authors bring to the fore their distinctive literary styles, yet converge in their shared commitment to the moral and spiritual upliftment of their community. This convergence echoes the greater movement of Anglican reform occurring during this period, highlighting broader socio-religious changes within Victorian England, and conveying diverse interpretations of evangelical and clerical duties. Readers are invited to explore this anthology as a profound educational engagement, uncovering the myriad ways religious ideas were articulated and contested during a transformative era. This collection offers a rare opportunity to traverse the intellectual landscapes of two compelling voices, whose sermons encourage reflection and dialogue. The volume'Äôs substantial offerings illuminate faith'Äôs nuanced role within broader societal currents, making it not only an invaluable historical document but a timeless exploration of the human condition.

    After making his debut in The Killing Floor, Jack Reacher has quickly become one of the most popular―and most enduring―fictional heroes to emerge in the past half century. Now, his creator tells the stories behind the stories. 
     
     
     
    These are the origin tales of all of the Reacher novels written solely by Lee Child, chock full of colorful anecdotes and intriguing inspirations. One by one, they expand upon each novel and place it in the context not only of the author's life, but of the world outside the books. And taken together, they chart the rise of an action icon, from 1997's The Killing Floor to 2019's Blue Moon. An afterword by crime fiction expert and bookseller Otto Penzler considers the importance of the character and novels in the canon of contemporary crime fiction. 
     
     
     
    In addition to the essays, this collection also includes an original Reacher short story―the first new Reacher appearance entirely written by Lee Child since 2019. Entertaining and enlightening, Reacher: The Stories Behind the Stories is a must-listen for fans of the Jack Reacher series and a capstone to any collection of this excellent author.
