Book Description
The Sides of the North is dedicated to Yona Pinson’s extensive scholarly work on Northern Renaissance art, from Hieronymus Bosch’s and Peter Breughel’s oeuvre, through lessons of morality, the Fool’s imagery, gender problems in the representation of the “femme fatale” bourgeois seductress, to emblem studies, and up to her most recent project on “Mirror, Moralization and Irony” in Bosch’s painting. In tribute to her research, this volume offers new insights into her fields of interest from a number of leading scholars in these disciplines. Larry Silver reconstructs a recently found Adoration of the Magi Triptych by Bosch, while Mara R. Wade, Michael J. Giordano and Kathryn M. Rudy discuss aspects of self-fashioning through portraiture, emblem books, and manuscripts and their spiritual and performative qualities. Nurith Kenaan-Kedar and Liad Rinot delve into problems of marginality in Gothic sculpture, as well as in Robert Campain’s and Jan van Eyck’s paintings. Ingrid Alexander-Skipnes, Ruth Strauss and Juliette Roding explore the topic of artistic identities and intentionalism, and political ideologies in various media, such as in small-scale sculptures and paintings. Just as Yona Pinson’s research diversified from iconographical studies to post-modern reflections on such issues as marginality and folly, this anthology presents a broad spectrum not only of the diverse topics, genres, and media of Northern Renaissance art, but also, and particularly, an overview of the methodological range of art scholarship of recent decades, thus offering readers insights into the intricate sides of contemporary Netherlandish visual culture.

Book Description
In June 2015, the Most High allowed me to decrypt chapters 70-82 of the Book of Enoch's courses of the heavenly luminaries. This text has for 500 years been lost to modern translation because of the Copernican heliocentric worldview. The riddle was resolved with the Flat Earth As Key To Decrypt The Book Of Enoch. In this last book of the trilogy, I explain the sides of the north connection to the throne of God, mount of congregation, Jacob's ladder, New Jerusalem, bottomless pit, and abysmal chasm which situated at the North Pole is gateway into the Earth's hollow interior. A magnetic mountain is centered there surrounded by a giant whirlpool which sucking and spewing out the oceans alternatively every six hours causes the tidal rhythm. Embracing earth as'flat disc with upturned edge' described by August Picard one can unlock the geocentric cosmology affirmed by the Bible and other texts like Enoch.

Book Description
"Superb...A masterpiece of thorough research, deft pacing and arresting detail...This war story — the fight to break out of a frozen hell near the Chosin Reservoir — has been told many times before. But Sides tells it exceedingly well, with fresh research, gritty scenes and cinematic sweep."—Washington Post From the New York Times bestselling author of Ghost Soldiers and In the Kingdom of Ice, a chronicle of the extraordinary feats of heroism by Marines called on to do the impossible during the greatest battle of the Korean War On October 15, 1950, General Douglas MacArthur, Supreme Commander of UN troops in Korea, convinced President Harry Truman that the Communist forces of Kim Il-sung would be utterly defeated by Thanksgiving. The Chinese, he said with near certainty, would not intervene in the war. As he was speaking, 300,000 Red Chinese soldiers began secretly crossing the Manchurian border. Led by some 20,000 men of the First Marine Division, the Americans moved deep into the snowy mountains of North Korea, toward the trap Mao had set for the vainglorious MacArthur along the frozen shores of the Chosin Reservoir. What followed was one of the most heroic--and harrowing--operations in American military history, and one of the classic battles of all time. Faced with probable annihilation, and temperatures plunging to 20 degrees below zero, the surrounded, and hugely outnumbered, Marines fought through the enemy forces with ferocity, ingenuity, and nearly unimaginable courage as they marched their way to the sea. Hampton Sides' superb account of this epic clash relies on years of archival research, unpublished letters, declassified documents, and interviews with scores of Marines and Koreans who survived the siege. While expertly detailing the follies of the American leaders, On Desperate Ground is an immediate, grunt's-eye view of history, enthralling in its narrative pace and powerful in its portrayal of what ordinary men are capable of in the most extreme circumstances. Hampton Sides has been hailed by critics as one of the best nonfiction writers of his generation. As the Miami Herald wrote, "Sides has a novelist's eye for the propulsive elements that lend momentum and dramatic pace to the best nonfiction narratives."

Book Description
NATIONAL BESTSELLER • A white-knuckle tale of polar exploration and heroism in the Gilded Age from the New York Times bestselling author of Blood and Thunder and Ghost Soldiers. • “A splendid book in every way…a marvelous nonfiction thriller.” —The Wall Street Journal On July 8, 1879, Captain George Washington De Long and his team of thirty-two men set sail from San Francisco on the USS Jeanette. Heading deep into uncharted Arctic waters, they carried the aspirations of a young country burning to be the first nation to reach the North Pole. Two years into the harrowing voyage, the Jeannette's hull was breached by an impassable stretch of pack ice, forcing the crew to abandon ship amid torrents of rushing of water. Hours later, the ship had sunk below the surface, marooning the men a thousand miles north of Siberia, where they faced a terrifying march with minimal supplies across the endless ice pack. Enduring everything from snow blindness and polar bears to ferocious storms and labyrinths of ice, the crew battled madness and starvation as they struggled desperately to survive. With thrilling twists and turns, In The Kingdom of Ice is a spellbinding tale of heroism and determination in the most brutal place on Earth.

Book Description
Could a Born-again Christian with the Bible, be a match for today's top secular Scientists, trained in General Relativity and Quantum Physics laws? Especially when it comes to answering the most far reaching and important question of all times: Does The Eternal God of the Bible exist? The answer is a resounding - Yes! Now the leading scientific authorities of today refer to Him, merely as an intelligent designer- most denying, either, His existence or His relevance. But God has His witnesses - mainly the Bible and those who believe in it and in Him (actually all of creation). At the core of this book is one of today's most incredible scientific discoveries: The Black Hole. There is nothing like it in this universe. Scientists are awed by its power and baffled by its mysteries. They've learned so much about it but we've discovered something even more revealing. This is that the Bible speaks of the Black Hole, long before it was even imagined by scientists. The "Lake of Fire" (also known as "Outter Darkness") is what is it called in the Bible. I believe these is ample scientific evidence to back up the claim that these two entities are one and the same - although it's doubtful that the researchers intended such evidence to prove what is clearly an antithesis to them. The esteemed astrophysicist, Stephen Hawking, once said that "black holes are not the eternal prisons as once thought". It is ironic that, as it turns out, the exact opposite is true. Some Black Holes are actually created by the Eternal God of the Bible as an Eternal Prison. This revelation should shock us awake in a manner that is, at once, horribly chilling and glorious devine. Imagine; what could be worst than entering a black hole and being destroyed? How about the actual certainty of being thrown onto one someday and not being destroyed but instead, being tormented alive inside - forever. Better to bow now before a loving Savior-than to be under the fearsome gaze of "The Angry Eye of GOD" at His Great White Throne Judgement. "Kiss the Son, lest he be angry and you perish from the way when his wrath is kindly but a litte. Blessed are all they put their trust in Him."-Psalms 2:12
