A Novel of 17th Century Scotland
“Hush ye, hush ye, little pet ye,
Hush ye, hush ye, do not fret ye,
The Black Avenger shall not get ye.”
Even though the Scottish covenanters endured harsh persecutions by the King’s Inquisition the mysterious name of the Black Avenger sent thrills of hope and courage to many a tormented soul. Yet the captains and dragoons feared this elusive figure while at the same time determining to place his head on the Netherbow. Many faithful Presbyterians were murdered on the spot or threatened with a touch of the thumbscrew or a place on the rack if they did not disclose the hiding place of some sought-out Covenanters.
Lady Marion Kennedy, the beautiful daughter of the Lord of Culzean Castle, was also threatened with similar reprisals if she refused to marry Luis Salvador de Ferrari, the usurper of Fenwick Ha’, and supporter of the Inquisition. Yet her heart longed for Duncan Fenwick, the rightful lord of Fenwick Ha’.
An exciting, fast-paced historical novel regarding the events of Scottish history in 1688.

Once upon a time, Joshua Gibbs was a disinterested slacker who, despite attending a classical Christian school, learned little and cared even less for his studies. He was more interested in pop culture than Great Books and performed only the bare minimum to pass. By age 27, however, he began work at a different classical institution, teaching the same literature he merely skimmed as a student. Ten years later, Gibbs has become a popular blogger and frequent speaker at education conferences. In this series of frank reflections on an unlikely career, Gibbs contemplates what it means to be a good teacher, how Great Books can change lives (and how one particular book,
The Consolation of Philosophy by Boethius, changed his), and why effective education is primarily concerned with the acquisition of virtue.
One part literary guidebook, one part personal memoir, and one part teacher’s manual,
How to Be Unlucky presents a one-of-a-kind case for ancient ways of thinking about teaching in our contemporary world.
