Can you imagine what it might have been like for the ancients to hear and perform their Scripture in song? In his first book, Seeing the Psalter, author Bob MacDonald showed us that the Psalms were not just a randomed collection of poems, but a carefully constructed story.

The narrow gauge railroad arrived in the United States in the late nineteenth century.

ISBN: 9781442613133 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 284 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In Sons of the Empire, Robert MacDonald explores popular ideas and myths in Edwardian Britain, their use by Baden-Powell, and their influence on the Boy Scout movement. In particular, he analyses the model of masculinity provided by the imperial frontier, the view that life in younger, far-flung parts of the empire was stronger, less degenerate than in Britain. The stereotypical adventurer - the frontiersman - provided an alternative ethic to British society. The best known example of it at the time was Baden-Powell himself, a war scout, the Hero of Mafeking in the South African...
