Spiritual Warfare & devilish devices
Author: Rev. Darrin Lauder
Publisher: AuthorHouse
ISBN: 1467840106
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 144
Book Description
There is a great need for combating ignorance in the area of understanding the evil forces that are at work in our world. This author seeks to address and highlight some of the ways the devil and his minions use to further anarchy and undermine God's order through devilish devices. The Lord God who made the heavens and the earth and whose providence governs His creation enables His servants, through insight and expereince, to record and pass on what they have found to be true. Such revelation is intended to benefit those who believe and receive the truth as it is in God's sovereign rule and reign. This little book combines personal expereince and biblical reflection to present scenerios and situations that the enemy of mankind's soul uses to further his destructive ways. Spiritual warfare impacts all on planet earth and yet relatively few grasp this. Even fewer battle effectively in this crucial aspect of our fallen world. This book endeavors to present truth that will help guard and guide those who believe such evil exists. It further seeks to bridge the category of 'spiritual warfare' with other central tenets and important doctrines of the Christian faith as recorded in the Holy Bible.

Book Description
A thrilling account of the 1911 Siege of Sidney Street—when a young Winston Churchill allowed two immigrant revolutionaries to burn to death in London’s East End. On January 3, 1911, police discovered Latvian revolutionaries on the lam in London’s East End. A six-hour gunfight ensued until fire consumed the building where the radicals had taken refuge.

At least two people burned to death in the blaze, but the Latvian ringleader, Peter the Painter, remained at large. Known as the Siege of Sidney Street, the event was a nationwide sensation and ignited fierce debates about immigration, extremism, and law enforcement. This book unravels the full story of the siege, the Latvian expatriates, and London’s vibrant anarchist movement in the early twentieth century.

Play Me Something Quick and Devilish
Author: Howard Wight Marshall
Publisher: University of Missouri Press
ISBN: 0826272932
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 422
Book Description
Play Me Something Quick and Devilish explores the heritage of traditional fiddle music in Missouri. Howard Wight Marshall considers the place of homemade music in people’s lives across social and ethnic communities from the late 1700s to the World War I years and into the early 1920s. This exceptionally important and complex period provided the foundations in history and settlement for the evolution of today’s old-time fiddling. Beginning with the French villages on the Mississippi River, Marshall leads us chronologically through the settlement of the state and how these communities established our cultural heritage. Other core populations include the “Old Stock Americans” (primarily Scotch-Irish from Kentucky, Tennessee, North Carolina, and Virginia), African Americans, German-speaking immigrants, people with American Indian ancestry (focusing on Cherokee families dating from the Trail of Tears in the 1830s), and Irish railroad workers in the post–Civil War period. These are the primary communities whose fiddle and dance traditions came together on the Missouri frontier to cultivate the bounty of old-time fiddling enjoyed today. Marshall also investigates themes in the continuing evolution of fiddle traditions. These themes include the use of the violin in Westward migration, in the Civil War years, and in the railroad boom that changed history. Of course, musical tastes shift over time, and the rise of music literacy in the late Victorian period, as evidenced by the brass band movement and immigrant music teachers in small towns, affected fiddling. The contributions of music publishing as well as the surprising importance of ragtime and early jazz also had profound effects. Much of the old-time fiddlers’ repertory arises not from the inherited reels, jigs, and hornpipes from the British Isles, nor from the waltzes, schottisches, and polkas from the Continent, but from the prolific pens of Tin Pan Alley. Marshall also examines regional styles in Missouri fiddling and comments on the future of this time-honored, and changing, tradition. Documentary in nature, this social history draws on various academic disciplines and oral histories recorded in Marshall’s forty-some years of research and field experience. Historians, music aficionados, and lay people interested in Missouri folk heritage—as well as fiddlers, of course—will find Play Me Something Quick and Devilish an entertaining and enlightening read. With 39 tunes, the enclosed Voyager Records companion CD includes a historic sampler of Missouri fiddlers and styles from 1955 to 2012.
