Book Description
All the World’s Reward presents ninety-eight tales from Norway, Denmark, Sweden, Swedish-speaking Finland, and Iceland. Each area is represented by the complete recorded repertoire of a single storyteller. Such a focus helps place the stories in the context of the communities in which they were performed and also reveals how individual folk artists used the medium of oral literature to make statements about their lives and their world. Some preferred jocular stories and others wonder tales; some performed mostly for adults, others for children; some used storytelling to criticize society, and others spun wish fulfillment tales to find relief from a harsh reality. For the most part collected a century ago, the stories were gleaned from archives and printed sources; the Icelandic repertoire was collected on audiotape in the 1960s. Each repertoire was selected by a noted folklorist. Introductions to the storytellers and collectors and commentaries and references for the tales are provided. A general introduction, a comprehensive bibliography, and an index of the tales according to Aarne-Thompson’s typology are also included. Period illustrations add charm to the stories.

Book Description
I have written many books and articles on various topics but since 2013, I have devoted myself fully in writing the interpretation of the Holy Quran in English and with the grace of Allah, I have completed the whole Quran on 29th October 2020 with 84 books. I believe there is a great need in the whole world for the correct interpretation of the Holy Quran to be written in English. Currently, there is a great misunderstanding about Islam among Muslims and non-Muslims globally. The misunderstanding of the meaning of the Holy Quran among Muslims will lead to the wrong practice of Islam which leads to the wrong actions of Muslims. The wrong actions of Muslims will lead to misunderstandings about Islam among Muslims and non-Muslims. The wrong actions of the Muslims have led to many miseries and wars among Muslims. The wrong actions of Muslims have also led to many wars and clashes between Muslims and non-Muslims. In order to avoid miseries, wars and clashes from taking place between the whole mankind in the whole world, the whole mankind in the whole world need to understand the true teaching of Islam. There is no other way for the whole mankind to understand the true teaching of Islam unless the whole mankind is able to read and understand the correct interpretation of the Holy Quran. The whole mankind is only able to read and understand the correct interpretation of the Holy Quran when it is written in the universal language of the world (English). For this very reason I have written the interpretation of the Holy Quran in English. Prof. Nasoha Bin Saabin

In the Name of Jesus

Pages : 582
Book Description
Finally, at last, Ira tells it as it is; in his latest book, In the Name of Jesus. This book is a tutorial on the gospel according to substitution, and it answers all your questions. Perhaps, Ira is right? Perhaps, present-day Christianity is in serious trouble theologically? What if Christian leadership is not in the truth? What if Christian pulpits are preaching every Sunday a theology that is not really in the name of Jesus? Every Christian should make this book essential reading. It is easy to understand, and it offers overwhelming scriptural evidence of its correctness. As Ira puts it; "This book is Christianity 101!"

Book Description
In 'All Saints' Day and Other Sermons', readers are presented with a collection of sermons delivered by Charles Kingsley, a man who wore many hats during his lifetime - from a priest of the Church of England, to a professor, social reformer, historian, novelist, and poet. As a Christian socialist, Kingsley's works are of particular interest to those interested in exploring issues of social justice and labor reforms.
