Faces in the Fire, and Other Fancies
Author: Frank Boreham
Publisher: DigiCat
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 168
Book Description
"Faces in the Fire, and Other Fancies" by Frank Boreham is a book that covers essays on theological topics as well as plain human interest topics. The author presents common events that teach deep, spiritual truths. Excerpt: "It was a chilling experience, that first glimpse of New Zealand! Hour after hour the great ship held on her way up the Cook Straits amidst scenery that made me shudder and that scowled me out of countenance. Rugged, massive, inhospitable, and bare, how sternly those wild and mountainous landscapes contrasted with the quiet beauty that I had surveyed from the same decks as the ship had dropped down Channel! I shaded my eyes with my hands and swept the strange horizon at every point, but nowhere could I see a sign of habitation—no man; no beast; no sheltering roof; no winding road; no welcoming column of smoke! And when, in the twilight of that still autumn evening, I at length descended the gangway, and set foot for the first time on the land of my adoption, I found myself—twelve thousand miles from home—in a country in which not a soul knew me, and in which I knew no single soul. It was not an exhilarating sensation."

Mushrooms on the Moor

ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 158
Book Description
Mushrooms on the Moor is a collection of essays from a Baptist preacher on the joys of everyday things like books, clothes, or even mushrooms. Boreham challenges himself to open up the moments of his life into a laughing, precious sweetness accessible to readers from all walks of life. Excerpt: "I have allowed the Mushrooms on the Moor to throw the glamour of their name over the entire volume because, in some respects, they are the most typical and representative things in it. They express so little but suggest so much! What fun we had, in the days of auld lang syne, when we scoured the dewy fields in search of them!"
