THE Library CORNER
Cecil Rhodes’, empire builder of an earlier century, greatest ambition was to
build a road from Cape Town, South Africa, to Cairo, Egypt. The road was never
completed, but Erik Mirandette did the 9,000 miles on a dirt bike. "He takes
readers to corners of the world and depths of human hurt they will never
forget!" The book is called The Only Road North.
Inklings by Melanie Jeschke takes place under the spires of Oxford.
The reviewer said, "(It is) a warm tribute to C.S. Lewis’ life and legacy.
Whether you’re a Lewis devotee or simply a hopeless romantic, the story will
delight you."
We always like to recognize books by local authors. The Covenant of Love
and the House That Love Built by G. Edna Howard is such a book. Edna shares
the heart-warming story of how she and her husband, Dale, renovated and rebuilt
an old house. In the process she shares analogies to our spiritual life. The
reviewer said, "It is a profound yet straight-forward exploration of the
rebuilding of man’s spiritual house and the similarities and differences in the
rebuilding of our natural house."
A new children’s VHS video is called: Record-Breaking Animals. An
adult VHS is C.S. Lewis Through Shadowlands National Geographic has a new
DVD, In the Womb, "exploring each trimester with amazing new detail."
