An Other Tale of the Scottish Reformation
So passed the men of Dundee, in the summer months of that terrible year, step by step from vague apprehension to vivid, actual terror; as the pestilence that walketh in darkness first struck down one, and another, and another; then gradually multiplied its victims until the voice of lamentation filled the city, and no man felt his own life safe from the destroyer for a single hour.
Not very long after the first appearance of the pestilence, Archie Duncan came back one morning in high glee from the grammarschool, to which he had been despatched by the careful Janet only half an hour before.
“Nae mair schule,” he cried, flinging his book on the table; “maister’s awa’, for fear o’ the sickness; — and may guid gang wi’ him!”
After the Second World War, Anne De Vries, one of the most popular novelists in The Netherlands, was commissioned to capture in literary form the spirit and agony of those five harrowing years of Nazi occupation. The result was Journey Through the Night, a four volume bestseller that has gone through more than thirty printings in The Netherlands.
From the Publisher:
On the day the earth shook something amazing happened. The earth quaked. The rocks split. All because someone incredible died. But just who was this man powerful enough to shake the earth, and why did he have to die?
The Day the Earth Shook introduces children to ‘super powerful, super strong love in action’ as they discover just why this was the most incredible day in history.
The Story of the Netherland War from the Death of William the Silent to its Close 1584-1648
The period during which Maurits of Nassau was the leader of the Netherland people is one which claims attention, not only on account of its exciting and memorable events, but even more because of its intimate connection with the subsequent history of England and of America. The writer has aimed to tell the story so that it shall be neither too long to be easily read, nor so condensed as to seem dry.
Among the works most consulted have been those of Motley, Davies, and Grattan, together with Rogers’ "Story of Holland" and Markham’s "The Fighting Veres." Some original authorities also have been used, particularly Meteren’s "History of the Low Countries," and "Les Lauriers de Nassau," by Orlers and Haestens, a very rare book published at Leyden in 1612, which narrates the victories won while Prince Maurits was commander-in-chief. It is illustrated with many careful representations of battles and sieges, and gives an excellent portrait of the prince, which is reproduced here.
This book is full of easy-to-understand example diagrams, colour-coded for quick recognition, this guide will be a trusted reference tool in your home, office, or school for years to come.
For ages 13 and Up.
Foreword by Gregory Maguire.
A pair of siblings, Eddy and Eleanor Hall, hunt for treasures as they try to save their ramshackle home from being repossessed by the bank. A piece of glass shaped like a diamond, embedded in an attic window, is the key to a series of dreams in which secrets are slowly revealed, and a way forward promised. The diamond’s refraction of light is the equivalent of the wardrobe crossing to Narnia, or the tornado express to Oz. The moonlight over Concord sifts through the diamond’s surfaces and the spell it casts interrupts the tedious worry of real life, ushering Eleanor and Eddy into elegant and shivery dream adventures of increasing peril.
#97 of the Top 100 Children’s Novels of all Time Poll (2012) by School Library Journal, even though out-of-print for decades!
“It is to this book that I credit my own belief in the capacity of fiction to enlarge, enlighten, enliven. It remains one of the most important books in my reading life—it showed me what books could do. It made me want to become a writer, too.”
—Gregory Maguire, best-selling author of WICKED
“Magic in Concord, Massachusetts. Plus Emerson and Thoreau. This book (and its sequels) struck a deep chord in me early on.” –Anne Nesbet, author
“Reminiscent in structure of Alice In Wonderland, it gives full vent to fantasy in following the escapades of Eddy and Eleanor in a world of dreams and nightmares. …there is much to be said in praise of Miss Langton’s imagery. The attempt to weave New England history into the main fabric—to incorporate Thoreau’s and Emerson’s ideas, is fascinating.”
—Kirkus Reviews
