Dr. Jack Hughes engagingly presents the colorful words of Thomas Watson in the context of Biblical exposition. Thomas Watson compelled people to listen to him, whether he was preaching or writing, by the vivid word pictures that he painted, both at his desk and in the pulpit.

Rusty Firmin

From its early beginnings in World War II, the Special Air Service (SAS) has won renown in some of the most dramatic, dangerous and controversial military special operations of the 20th century. It is a secretive and mysterious unit, whose operations and internal structures are hidden from the public eye. Now, one of its longest-serving veterans offers a glimpse into the shadowy world of the SAS. Rusty Firmin spent an incredible 15 years with 'The Regiment' and was a key figure in the assault of the Iranian Embassy in London in May 1980. Newly revised and available in paperback, this is the unforgettable chronicle of Rusty's combat experiences - a fascinating and intimate portrayal of what it was like to be part of the world's most respected Special Operations Force.

One day, when his hearing aid is off, Dachy falls asleep and ends up floating down the river towards a waterfall and a hungry crocodile. Can his friends rescue him in time?--

Biographies Women

By all rights, she shouldn't have made it. When she was only two years old, her mother, Anne Boleyn, was executed for treason by her father, Henry VIII. Her brother, King Edward VI, dismissed her succession rights in his will. Her sister, "Bloody Mary," imprisoned her in the Tower of London. But Elizabeth survived them all to one day take the throne herself, improbably becoming the greatest monarch in the history of England. In this convenient new biography, Jack Hughes re-examines Elizabeth's surprising rise to ultimate power and her 44-year reign. With every turn of the page, the reader discovers another of this complex woman's many facets: the wise ruler who oversaw an unparalleled flowering of artistic creation and trade; the pragmatist who brought peace to England's religious strife; the unhappy lover of Dudley and Essex; the ruthless queen who executed her cousin; and the military planner who defeated the mighty Spanish Armada. Though far from a perfect ruler, Elizabeth proved herself to be, in Hughes' words, "the right person at just the right time"-a woman who defined a nation forever.
