Sinossi

Discover the origins of Middle-earth in The Book of Lost Tales – Part One, the foundational volume of Tolkien's vast legendarium. These are the earliest versions of what would later evolve into The Silmarillion, The Lord of the Rings, and beyond—tales first imagined during World War I and steeped in rich mythic language. Here, the world of Elves, Valar, and Men takes its first breath through stories such as The Cottage of Lost Play, The Fall of Gondolin, and The Tale of Tinúviel. Edited and annotated by Christopher Tolkien, this volume reveals the raw beauty, shifting names, and developmental sketches of Tolkien's myth-making genius. It is a treasure trove for devoted fans and scholars, offering a rare glimpse into the mind of the master as he began shaping a mythology for England.

    Medieval Architecture and Legacy...

    These three works highlight how architecture and intellectual ambition shaped the heart of the Middle Ages and left a legacy that endures to this day. 
    Begin with The Gothic Cathedral, a stunning symbol of spiritual devotion and engineering genius. Soaring spires, flying buttresses, and luminous stained glass windows combined to create sacred spaces that lifted hearts and minds toward heaven. These architectural marvels not only defined the skyline of medieval Europe but also reflected the era’s complex religious and social structures. 
    Next, delve into The Carolingian Renaissance, a revival of learning, literacy, and classical influence under Charlemagne's rule. This movement sparked architectural innovation, preserved ancient knowledge, and laid the foundations for a more cohesive European identity during a time of fragmentation and uncertainty. 
    Conclude with The Italian City-States, hubs of commerce, culture, and politics. Their wealth and rivalry fueled a vibrant civic life and groundbreaking urban planning that blended practicality with beauty. From Florence to Venice, these city-states bridged the medieval and Renaissance worlds, forever changing the course of European history. 
    Together, these works offer a window into how medieval people built not only physical structures—but also enduring cultural legacies.

    A crisis of polarization more and more threatens the future of civilization. Whether it’s philosophy, theology, politics, or culture, we find ourselves falling into stark either/or dilemmas: Religion or science? Conservative or liberal? Faith or works? We can’t help but choose one idea at the expense of the other, falling into zero-sum games, mutual extremes, and the endless division of human life.   In The Way of Heaven and Earth, Matthew Becklo offers a way of interpreting this crisis: Christ and “the Catholic both/and.” Framing our greatest dilemmas as “heaven-earth dilemmas”—choices between God or man, God’s place or man’s place, the spiritual or the physical, or the spirit or the flesh—Becklo shows that our greatest hope for overcoming our divisions is in Christ, who is “the Way of heaven and earth,” and the Catholic Church, which is the fullness of the Way.   With the help of Scripture, Catholic teaching, St. Augustine, St. Thomas Aquinas, and various philosophers, theologians, and artists, The Way of Heaven and Earth finds new hope in this forgotten Way, which calls us into the paradoxes of the human journey.

    A guide to writing transformative nonfiction or inspirational memoir from a 6x author with nearly two decades' experience in the book writing and publishing space. 
    If you’ve ever thought, “I really want to write a book, but…” this book is for you. 
    Despite what you may have heard, becoming a successful author isn’t about having 67,973 Instagram followers, reaching “bestselling” status for seven seconds, or having Beyoncé take your book on tour with her (as amazing as that would be!). 
    It’s about impacting one person so deeply that they can’t help but recommend your book again and again. It’s also about uncovering more of yourself while you tell your story so that your unique light can’t help but shine more brightly upon the world. 
    This practical, thorough guide to writing and publishing nonfiction and memoir helps you: 
    ★ Go from constantly questioning your writing ability, message, and expertise to confidently owning the valuable insights and perspectives you bring to the world 
    ★ Remove overthinking when it comes to how a book “should” come together and instead gain absolute clarity in the book-writing process your favorite authors follow 
    ★ Understand the six lesser-talked-about steps you really need to consider when writing a truly impactful book 
    ★ Get completely clear on your book’s core message, your magnetic hook, and how to speak directly to your target readers with understanding, compassion, and a roadmap that clearly lays out their next steps 
    You don’t need more experience, motivation, or hours in the day to write a book you’re immensely proud of. Once you know what to focus on and how to navigate the avalanche of “But what if…?” that arises along the way, you’ll finally be able to get the damn book written so it can take its rightful place as someone else’s favorite read.
