$39.99
Lydia was born in 1894, the daughter of a poorly educated Baptist preacher. Two years later her mother died in childbirth. Her father married a widow with two older sons. By the time she was age five she was being sent to the homes of various relatives who needed additional domestic help. She received less than three years of schooling. As a young girl, she was raped by her stepbrothers and as a teenager she ran away from home. Earning her living as a waitress, she met her future husband, also a Baptist preacher. They had a courtship that lasted only a few days. Her husband went on to earn a Ph.D. and teach in several colleges while Lydia received no further education. They struggled through a lifetime of incompatibility, raising four brilliant and well-educated children. Lydia outlived her husband by about ten years and was a beautiful and gracious older lady.

Abolition Of Man
$17.99Add to cartIn this graceful work, C. S. Lewis reflects on society and nature and the challenges of how best to educate our children. He eloquently argues that we need as a society to underpin reading and writing with lessons on morality and in the process both educate and re-educate ourselves. In the words of Walter Hooper, “If someone were to come to me and say that, with the exception of the Bible, everyone on earth was going to be required to read one and the same book, and then ask what it should be, I would with no hesitation say The Abolition of Man. It is the most perfectly reasoned defense of Natural Law (Morality) I have ever seen, or believe to exist. If any book is able to save us from future excesses of folly and evil, it is this book.” This beautiful paperback edition is sure to attract new readers to this classic book.
