About the book: You know your Goliath. You recognize his walk, the thunder of his voice.
He taunts you with bills you can't pay, people you can't please, habits you can't break, failures you can't forget, and a future you can't face. But just like David, you can face your giant, even if you aren't the strongest, the smartest, the best equipped, of the holiest.
David. You could read his story and wonder what God saw in him. His life has little to offer the unstained, straight-A saint. He fell as often as he stood, stumbled as often as he conquered. But for those who know the sound of Goliath, David gives this reminder:
Focus on giants -- you stumble; focus on God -- your giants tumble.
If you're ready to face your giants, let his story inspire you. The same God who helped him will help you.

Fail-Safe, by Eugene Burdick and Harvey Wheeler, is a best-selling thriller first published in 1962, followed two years later by a popular film starring Henry Fonda and Walter Matthau. Set during the Cold War, it explores what could happen if one of the two superpowers were to accidentally launch a nuclear strike against the other. A brief Preface by the co-authors indicates they had no access to classified information in preparing the novel, and they embellished the weapons described in declassified documents by making them more powerful and effective. They envision the novel's action as taking place in 1967. They warn that the laws of probability suggest an accident will occur if the nuclear weapons buildup by the two countries continues.

It seemed to me better to brave the muddy realities of the unprotected out-of-doors, the uncertain food, the attacks from the watchdogs of comfortable homes, and above all the chilling rains and winds of factual experience. For the roving way led through bracing airs over green hills to broad sunny plains and sparkling rivers flowing to distant seas. But as I approach the years of postrheumatic wisdom, I am beginning to find increasing refuge in the great palaces and parks of the classical philosophies.I no longer despise those who, like our great… Read More

The Faithful Wife" was first published in 1936. In this novel, Sigrid Undset deals with women's relationship to profession, eroticism and childlessness. Nathalie is a modern woman of her time; She is liberated, has a good education and a leading professional position. She has been married to Sigurd for sixteen years, but they have no children. Still, their marriage has been happy — and safe, Nathalie believes. But it doesn't help that she's faithful when her husband isn't. "The Faithful Wife", which is Undset's last contemporary novel, also bears witness to the time in which it was written – an interwar period marked by the resurgence of Nazism and discussions about human dignity.

In the next five minutes, as the stout middle-aged Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Habsburg, heir to the Austro-Hungarian throne, and his wife bled to death, a dynasty—and with it, a whole way of life—began to topple.In the ages before World War I, four dynasties—the Habsburg, Hohenzollern, Ottoman, and Romanov—dominated much of civilization. Outwardly different, they were at bottom somewhat alike: opulent, grandiose, suffocating in tradition, ostentatiously gilded on the surface and rotting at the core. Worse still, they were tragically… Read More

Penman takes up where she left off in Here Be Dragons (1985), producing another fat (577 pp.) historical novel, with lots of intrigue, drama, finely crafted cameos, and sweeping panoramas. The focus here is on the conflict between the weak and vacillating Henry III of England and the charismatic Simon de Montfort, brilliant soldier and champion of the Provisions--laws enacted by the barons to limit the abuses of the monarchy. Simon, a penniless, landless young Frenchman, talks his way into an English earldom and into the heart of Nell, widowed Countess of Pembroke and sister to King Henry. Their love match is the warm heart of the story from which the political events of the 36 years between 1231 and 1267 radiate. In an early foreshadowing of the later tragedy, Simon is repudiated and exiled by Henry for his actions as the King's governor in Gascony. He returns from exile and a… Read More
