The Discovery of Britain: An Accidental History
"'Graham Robb has found a new format for writing history just as Craig Brown found a fresh way to write biography' - Alan Johnson 'Robb tumbles into British history with an infectious enthusiasm . . . immensely entertaining' - Chris Bryant, author of The Glamour Boys Taking you on a time-travelling adventure around the 'spindly, sea-wracked islands' we call home, The Discovery of Britain is history that's panoramic and intimate, poignant and shocking, seriously funny, and enlightening in the most surprising way. In the assured hands of the prize-winning author of The Discovery of France, and often from the unique vantage point of his bicycle, we encounter an entertaining cast of characters foreign and homegrown, drop in on places and events, and dwell on the successes and catastrophes across British history. From ancient settlements swallowed up by the sea and the creation of Stonehenge to the advent of multiculturalism and recent political earthquakes, all is seen as it's never been seen before. With intriguing maps and illustrations throughout, The Discovery of Britain can be devoured whole or each chapter read in the time it takes to change a bicycle tyre or drink a cup of coffee. The wonderful choice of how to enjoy this original and sweeping history of Britain is yours."

Tell Your Catholic Friend: How to Have Gospel Conversations with Love
"We all have Catholic friends. The question is: Are we sharing the gospel with them? If we are, how are we doing it? The Roman Catholic Church is the largest religious institution in the world with approx. 1.3 billion Catholics world-wide. Although Roman Catholicism seems to be a single unified belief system, not all Catholics believe the same things or act in the same way. Regardless, all Roman Catholics feel connected to their church's traditions and rituals. Unfortunately, the church of Rome does not hold the Bible as the highest authority or teach that salvation comes by faith alone. Many Catholics might be baptized but may not be true believers according to the Bible. Therefore, when we talk about Jesus and the gospel with our Catholic friends, it's crucial to understand their beliefs and the key issues involved. The audiobook will give answers to the following questions: - Is Roman Catholicism yet another denomination? - Are Catholics born again? - What gospel narratives and tips can be used to share the gospel with Catholics? - What are the FAQs in our gospel conversations? Tell Your Catholic Friends will help you understand both Roman Catholicism and your Roman Catholic friends better, encouraging you to share the gospel with them, and empowering you to do so in a faithful, loving and appealing way."
