Описание:

'We walked steadily towards the van.
Self-confidence is everything.
This is the ultimate face-off.
Suddenly the lions back off.'

Alienated from his English family by the secrecy surrounding the identity of his father, Rufus Jones escapes to Australia. He builds a new life as a professional gambler until a misunderstanding with the law finds him struggling to survive in prison.
There he stumbles across the BBC Wildlife series 'The Human Planet.'
Seeing parallels between mankind's fight for survival in the wild and his fight for survival in prison, he adopts the episode 'Grasslands: Roots of Power' as his life model.

But his prison escapades leave him a marked man. Even on release he needs all the cunning and courage of a Kalahari Bushman and the bravado of an Ethiopian Cowboy to survive; especially when a chance meeting with his father leads him to understand who he truly is.

Описание: Argyll is the beautiful, wild and inspirational home of Celtic Christianity. It is the spiritual heartland of Scotland and, some would say, of the whole United Kingdom.

Until now, no-one has sought to uncover the reasons why the spiritual landscape of Argyll is so distinctively unique, rich and varied. Why is it characterised by a more gentle, liberal, mystical and liturgical Christian culture than the harsher Calvinist evangelism of the neighbouring Highlands and the Western Isles? Why has it produced such a disproportionately large amount of beautiful devotional material?

This joyful book, with a cover image by popular artist JoLoMo, is impressionistic and accessible but always of the highest scholarly standards. It reveals the dominant themes and figures in Argylla (TM)s spiritual landscape. Ian Bradleya (TM)s love of Argyll shines through as he takes both a geographical and biographical approach and looks at the interplay of landscape and Christian belief through such figures as Columba, Carswell, sundry Campbells, George Matheson, George MacLeod and others.

Drawing on extensive original research and interviews with a wide variety of people, including many Church of Scotland ministers and lay people, this is an enthralling and fascinating read for all who are interested in Scottish history and identity, Celtic Christianity and Scotlanda (TM)s spiritual heritage.
