The exuberant art of Gustave Doré (1832-83) has influenced romantics and realists around the world. A self-taught child prodigy who met with early and resounding success, Doré ranks among the most prolific and popular illustrators of all time. Known as "the master of the fantastic," he excelled in conveying dramatic action in memorable settings. This original collection assembles for the first time Doré's best work depicting knights and their adventures. It features eighty-six captivating scenes of battles, damsels, dragons, and other images from the Age of Chivalry. Advances in science and technology introduced irrevocable changes to the society of Doré and his contemporaries and aroused a nostalgia for simpler times. The moral certitude and stability embodied in Arthurian myths and other medieval romances proved as appealing to Victorians as they do to modern audiences. This collection features highlights from eight volumes that span more than two decades of Doré's career, including scenes from Tennyson's Idylls of the King. Other sources include Don Quixote, Orlando Furioso, Rabelais' The Life of Gargantua and of Pantagruel, and Michaud's History of the Crusades.

For centuries, Christians have gathered to hear messages of forgiveness and redemption, hope and abundant life. They have come from far and near to drink from the waters of everlasting life. Living Water is a collection of sermons conceived to reveal the love of God poured out in Jesus Christ as the true living water. These sermons address those particular ideas and beliefs necessary to sustain faith in the rough and tumble world of 21st Century living. Preached first at St. John's Episcopal Church, Arlington, MA, they originate out of the author's concerns as pastor and prophet for the spiritual well?being of a particular people in a particular place. Nevertheless, the themes contained in each sermon are universal, having relevance for all spiritual seekers throughout the world and across denominational and interfaith boundaries. Ronald Ramsey shows how the gift of faith, animated by the grace of God, can transform and enliven the human soul. Living Water is a treasure of pastoral insights and unique biblical perspectives which explores the challenges of human living and offers hope for spiritual seekers and prophetic light for the spiritual journey.

We have a King. He is the personal, infinite God, who has created us and redeemed us through His Son, Jesus Christ. He has revealed truth to us. On the basis of what He has said, we are to live our lives as Kingdom people who are present, spiritual members of the Kingdom of God. Our Great King has given us commandments, statutes, testimonies, precepts, and promises. At the same time, He has given us His Spirit to live within us and empower us to live lives to please Him. His love for us and His power in us is beyond anything we could ever imagine or think. What are the things we are to do on a daily basis, to cause us to proceed through this life? The King has given His people a picture of a journey, a pilgrimage. We are to press forward in this life toward our high calling in Christ Jesus (Philippians 3:14). We do this by walking, running, fighting, trusting, and praying. What does each one of these action words look like in practice? This is what we want to examine in this book. We are going to take the position that someone else has paid a great price to reclaim us and to bring us back from our enslavement to sin and to set us free. Indeed, Jesus did pay it all, and all to Him we owe. Our King is our Savior and Lord, and our lives are to be spent to return His great and sacrificial love and to always live for His glory and honor.
