The Forge of Christendom: The End of Days and the Epic Rise of the West
by Tom HollandAt the approach of the first millennium, the Christians of Europe did not seem likely candidates for future greatness. Weak, fractured, and hemmed in by hostile nations, they saw no future beyond the widely anticipated Second Coming of Christ. But when the world did not end, the peoples of Western Europe suddenly found themselves with no choice but to begin the heroic task of building a Jerusalem on earth.In The Forge of Christendom, Tom Holland masterfully describes this remarkable new age, a time of caliphs and Viking sea kings, the spread of castles and the invention of knighthood. It was one of the most significant departure points in history: the emergence of Western Europe as a distinctive and expansionist power.From the Trade Paperback edition..It was the age of Otto the Great and William the Conqueror, of Caliphs and Viking sea-kings, of hermits, monks, and serfs. It witnessed the spread of castles, the invention of knighthood, and the founding of a papal monarchy. Above all, it brought people to fear that the end days might be at hand, and yet also--with an effort so prodigious that it has the power to move us still--to invent themselves anew.A momentous achievement: for this was nothing less than the founding of the modern West. It is an epic story that Tom Holland renders with the narrative skill and wide-angled scope of a novelist and the careful scholarship a historian. It will transform its readers' conception of the origins of the Modern West.

Forgotten People: A Year Among the Hutterites
by Michael HolzachA Journey Through Time, the Seasons of the Soul - "AM I DREAMING?" Michael Holzach asks himself in the opening pages of The Forgotten People. And well he might. He had retreated from the stressful bustle of the 20th century and had thrust himself into the serene but incongruous world of the Hutterites, a communal society dating back over 400 years. But what he found there was far from comforting. What began as a simple experiment in "fly-on-the- wall" journalism soon became complicated by Holzach's struggle fully to know, fully to enter the Hutterite mind and heart. The result is a book of extraordinary power, documenting not only the amazing history of a courageous and dedicated people, but also the sojourn of a person confronting his beliefs, his longings, and his fears. "Alone in his isolated room in the absolute dark and quiet of his Hutterite nights, Michael Holzach's struggles in his own 'dark night of the soul' left him shaken, perspiring, and trembling. It was good to read the Hutterite beliefs, religion and life did make an impact on him, however brief. "Once I picked up the book I was mesmerized. I could not put it down again until I had read the last word on the last page. My next thought was to share it with everybody. This important translation makes that possibility more than a dream." - Mary Wipf, former Hutterite
