How two British World War I-era planes came to be found many decades later in India and returned to their former glory. In 2000, upon hearing rumors of aircraft parts being found in a maharaja’s palace in India, Guy Black took a trip that would lead to the most unexpected discovery of his life. Hidden away in a former elephant stable of the maharaja’s palace in Bikaner, Rajasthan, were the hulks of at least two DH9 bombers. This was no example of this WWI aircraft in existance in Britain. Recognizing their importance to the UK’s aviation heritage, and excited by the challenge of restoration, Guy set about negotiating their purchase and returning them back to England. In DH9: From Ruin to Restoration, Guy Black details the intriguing history of how these two rare aircraft (D-5649 and E-8894) came to be in India under the Imperial Gift Scheme. He also reveals the extraordinary efforts in recovering these two planes and the extensive restoration project undertaken to bring them to their former glory. With D-5649 restored as a static and proudly on display at IWM Duxford, he then set about getting E-8894 back to airworthy status. The book then moves on to the highly anticipated flight of E-8894 and the years of frustration that followed until its maiden flight with “Dodge” Bailey at the controls on May 13, 2019—making it the only WWI bomber flying anywhere in the world. Told in meticulous detail, this fully illustrated book includes a foreword by Andy Saunders and is a must-have of all WWI and aircraft enthusiasts.

Queen Elizabeth II scheduled Sutter's Fort as a must-see during her 1963 tour of California. Rise, Ruin and Restoration answers the questions visitors ask: - Why (and how) did Swiss immigrant John Sutter build a high-walled fortress in the wilderness? Who were his employees? - Who were the pioneers that traveled to California in covered wagons, making Sutter's Fort their initial destination? - What was the role Sutter's Fort played in the rescue of the Donner Party? The Bear Flag Revolt? The American conquest of California? - Why did the 1848 gold discovery bring ruin-and who owned Sutter's Fort after John Sutter left? When did the structure decay and collapse? - Why was it important to restore Sutter's Fort in the 1890s? How much did it cost? - What great discovery in the 20th century changed the ways in which visitors experience Sutter's Fort today?

The book of Haggai remains one of the most important books of the Old Testament Intertestamental Period. Why? Because it describes the challenges and struggles that occurred during the rebuilding of the first Temple that was built by King Solomon and later destroyed by the Babylonians in 587 BCE (see 1 Kings 7:1, 38; 2 Kings 25:8-9). It was during the Intertestamental Period that the cultural and religious foundations were laid that would evolve into the Judaism that we see in the New Testament. Throughout the study of the history, geography, and politics of this era, you will learn a lot about an important era of biblical history. This short Bible study guide will inform, enlighten, and inspire you to learn and study more whether you study alone or in a small group, a church-wide Bible study fellowship, or Sunday school class. Excerpt from the Book The New Testament Era begins in many respects with the close of the Old Testament Era. There is a commonly held belief that the time between the Old and New Testaments is the period of prophetic silence in Israel. One of the major difficulties that Bible teachers face when teaching about this era in Jewish history is the lack of enthusiasm on the part of many believers to want to study the Intertestamental Period. In all too many instances the cry is "give me Jesus and that's enough." Unfortunately, one cannot begin to comprehend the full impact of the ministry of Jesus without some knowledge of the cultural, historical, geographical, religious, and social backgrounds out of which His ministry took place.

“A tremendous talent.” —Boston Globe “Restoration is an elegantly constructed work of fiction, seamlessly moving between the past and the present.” —Ron Rash, bestselling author of Serena Acclaimed novelist Olaf Olafsson brings us Restoration, a sweeping story of love tested by human frailty and the terrors and tragedies of war. Departing from the landscapes of his native Iceland—so beautifully evoked in Absolution, The Journey Home, and other previous works—Olafson sets Restoration in the gorgeous Italian hills of Tuscany during the World War Two years of the early 1940s. He captivates readers with a deeply emotional story in the vein of The English Patient by Michael Ondaajte, Ian McEwan’s Atonement, and other contemporary literary classics, spinning a tale of passion, art, war, and betrayal centered around a pair of love triangles and a forged Caravaggio.

The heart of the biblical understanding of idolatry, argues Gregory Beale, is that we take on the characteristics of what we worship. Employing Isaiah 6 as his interpretive lens, Beale demonstrates that this understanding of idolatry permeates the whole canon, from Genesis to Revelation. Beale concludes with an application of the biblical notion of idolatry to the challenges of contemporary life.

The Catholic Church teaches that punishment must have a constructive and redemptive purpose and that it be coupled with treatment and, when possible, restitution. Rehabilitation and restoration must include the spiritual dimension of healing and hope. Since the publication of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishop's 2000 pastoral statement on restorative justice, the conversation surrounding the need for criminal justice reform and restorative justice has moved forward. Redemption and Restoration responds from a Catholic perspective to help form an educational campaign to equip Catholics and their leaders to participate in the national conversation on this issue, create the programs needed to assist in healing the harm caused by crime, and restore our communities. The book develops the traditional Catholic understanding of justice, offers a theological understanding of restorative justice, explains how it can be implemented, and reflects on the practical arguments for restorative justice. Grounded in the stories of real people, Redemption and Restoration helps readers gain a deeper understanding of how this affects us all as a country and a church. It includes discussion questions to engage groups in exploring issues related to restorative justice.
