My Family and Other Strangers: Adventures in Family History $10.25 <p>When Jeremy Hardy decided to explore his ancestry it was, in part, to get to the bottom of his grandmother Rebecca’s dubious claims that the family descended from a certain 17th-century architect and that, more recently, Jeremy’s great-grandfather was a Royal bodyguard. Other legends ranged from the great aunt who ran illegal hooch during Prohibition to the wronged Victorian servant girl who bore an illegitimate Hardy, not forgetting the family’s rightful claim to a large country estate. </p><p> </p><p> Wild stories aside, Jeremy sets out to such diverse locations as the Croydon one-way system and the hostile waters around Malta in order to find traces of recognisable family traits and a sense of how he came to be. With wry humour and a keen eye for the absurd and the frustrating, Jeremy takes us on a by turns funny and moving journey into the world of family ancestry. </p><p> </p><p> <i>My Family and Other Strangers</i> will be enjoyed by anyone who has tried to decipher the 1901 census records, or simply wishes they too had asked their grandparents more about their lives.</p> |

Delirious: My Journey with the Band, a Growing Family, and an Army of Historymakers $14.99 “> Martin Smith–one of the leading voices in the modern worship movement–shares his story, his insight, and his challenge to change the world. For seventeen years, Smith held the microphone for Delirious?–the mega-selling, Dove Award-winning, Grammy-nominated band that helped bring the modern worship movement into existence. Here Martin reflects on everything from the craft of leading worship to the challenges of parenthood to how to find a place of compassion within a culture of consumerism. Along the way, he challenges readers: Are you going to be spectators–or agents of change? Are you going to read history–or make it happen? Are you just going to sing the songs–or will you live them out? Always personal and often surprising, Smith’s story will spur readers to embrace the action God wants them to take.” |
