Viking Compass, 2004. 1st Edition 1st Printing. Hardcover. As New/As New. B&W Map. CONDITION: UNREAD, but not quite perfect, 2004 Viking Compass hardcover (black boards) and dust jacket, first edition, first printing. Problem: blank bookplate top loose end page - probably covering a bookstore stamp. Dust jacket has tiny (really!) edge wear. Interior clean & tight. B&W map of ancient world under Constantine and Julian. CONTENT: This book may generate heat as well as light, for it maintains that sectarian conflicts and religious wars are inevitable results of monotheism. If there is one god and one good, as monotheism claims, then differing religions must be devilish or evil. Polytheism, however, being essentially pluralistic, grants that god--or goddess--can take different forms; hence the deity worshiped by a neighbor could be as powerful as one's own. Not that polytheism has no blood on its hands; there have been persecutions led by polytheistic people. But most early…

Random House, 2017. 1st Edition 2nd Printing. Hardcover. As New/New. CONDITION: LIKE NEW 2017 Random House hardcover (beige boards) and dust jacket, first edition, second printing. Round stamp remainder dot bottom edges at spine. CONTENT: Before the Corleones, before the Lannisters, there were the Borgias - one of history's notorious families. It is 1502 and Rodrigo Borgia, a self-confessed womanizer and master of political corruption, is now on the papal throne as Alexander VI. His daughter Lucrezia, aged twenty-two-already three times married and a pawn in her father's plans-is discovering her own power. And then there is his son Cesare Borgia, brilliant, ruthless, and increasingly unstable; it is his relationship with Machiavelli that gives the Florentine diplomat a master class in the dark arts of power and politics. What Machiavelli learns will go on to inform his great work of modern politics, The Prince. But while the pope rails against old age and his son's increasingly erratic behavior, it is…

Weidenfeld & Nicholson, 2018. 1st Paperback Edition 1st Printing. Soft cover. New/No Jacket Issued. 2 era B&W and Color Photo & art reproduction sections. CONDITION: NEW 2018 Weidenfeld & Nicholson trade paperback, first paperback edition, first printing. 2 era B&W / color photos & art reproduction sections. CONTENT: The Gordon Riots of 1780 were the worst civil disturbance in British history, causing 285 deaths and widespread looting in central London. The riots had begun as an anti-Catholic protest against the Papist Act two years earlier, which intended to reduce official discrimination against British Catholics after over one hundred years of penalties against them. It is against this backdrop that the 50-year battle for Catholic Emancipation developed, culminating in the Roman Catholic Relief Act of 1829. A hugely sensitive issue during the Napoleonic Wars, William Pitt's government had fallen in 1806 over it. Its successful passage followed a vigorous campaign on the issue by Irish lawyer Daniel…

Crossroad Books, 1992. 1st Paperback Edition Printing Unknown. Soft cover. New/No Jacket Issued. John O'Brien B&W illustrations and cover art. CONDITION: UNREAD 1992 Crossroad Books paperback, appears to be first paperback edition (1981), but no printing is given. Interesting B&W illustrations (and cover art) by John O'Brien. CONTENT: Here, the charming, mature stories from the internationallly beloved monk are accompanied by original art. Like the parables of Jesus, these tales repeatedly unfold new levels of meaning if we are willing to sit with them. "Theophane's view of God was expansive. It was about God as the center of deep belonging. It was about God as the purveyor of Grace, not judgement. It was about God who celebrated the messy and ordinary and found it sacred. This book is a worthy addition to great devotional and meditative works." " Especially beloved from Tales are the following: "The Pearl of Great Price",…
