  • Jan Smuts was lauded as the first successful general of the Allies in the war; as “the general in whom the whole Empire has most confidence”; as “the destroyer of the German power in Africa”; as “the most conspicuous figure in greater Britain”; and as “a remarkable combination of talents not usually found in the same person, unless, indeed, that person belongs to the small and select class of which the Caesars, the Cromwells, and the Napoleons are the outstanding types.” His character was described as “too spacious and complex to be read offhand.” In an article in the press Mr. Winston Churchill wrote: “At this moment there arrives in England from the outer marches of the Empire a new and altogether extraordinary man . . . The stormy and hazardous roads he has travelled by would fill all the acts and scenes of a drama. He has warred against us — well we know it. He has quelled rebellion against our own flag with unswerving loyalty and unfailing shrewdness. He has led raids at desperate odds and conquered provinces by scientific strategy . . . His astonishing career and his versatile achievements are only the index of a profound sagacity and a cool, far-reaching comprehension . . .” And while introducing him to the Imperial War Cabinet, Mr. Lloyd George referred to him as “one of the most brilliant generals in this war.”

  • From the Publisher: Determined to make her heroine "as poor and plain as myself," Charlotte Brontë made a daring choice for her 1847 novel. Jane Eyre possesses neither the great beauty nor entrancing charm that her fictional predecessors used to make their way in the world. Instead, Jane relies upon her powers of diligence and perception, conducting herself with dignity animated by passion. The instant and lasting success of Jane Eyre proved Brontë's instincts correct. Readers of her era and ever after have taken the impoverished orphan girl into their hearts, following her from the custody of cruel relatives to a dangerously oppressive boarding school and onward through a troubled career as a governess. Jane's first assignment at Thorn field, where the proud and cynical master of the house harbors a scandalous secret, draws readers ever deeper into a compelling exploration of the mysteries of the human heart. A banquet of food for thought, this many-faceted tale invites a splendid variety of interpretations. The heroine's insistence upon emotional equality with her lover suggests a feminist viewpoint, while her solitary status invokes a consideration of the problems of growing up as a social outsider. Some regard Jane's attempts to reconcile her need for love with her search for moral rectitude as the story's primary message, and lovers of gothic romance find the tale's social and religious aspects secondary to its gripping elements of mystery and horror. This classic of English literature truly features something for every reader.

    Jane Eyre by Charlotte Brontë is a first person narration of the life of Jane, the eponymous heroine. Having been orphaned at a young age, Jane must live with her emotionally abusive aunt and bullying cousins. Eventually sent to Lowood school for orphaned girls, Jane is again mistreated by apathetic management at the institution until the abuses are discovered and benefactors help improve the school. Having overcome the difficulties of her childhood, Jane leaves Lowood to serve as a governess for a young French girl at Thornfield Hall. In her new post, Jane is employed by the mysterious and brooding Mr. Rochester. Thornfield Hall is as strange as its master, and Jane begins to notice odd noises and unexplained occurrences. Despite the strangeness of her new situation, Jane begins to develop a deep affection for Mr. Rochester. However, when Jane discovers the truth behind the mysteries of Thornfield Hall she seems destined to be forever separated from her beloved Rochester. Jane Eyre beautifully illustrates the power of the Christian faith to overcome hardship, the tenacity of holy love, the struggle to resist temptation, and the joy which comes through obedience, patience, and hope. The Jane Eyre Student Study Guide increases the student’s vocabulary and reading comprehension by providing in-depth vocabulary study, reading notes, comprehension questions, and more.
