The majority of this work was written by Bunyan whilst he was imprisoned as a Nonconformist following the Restoration of 1660. Bunyan's experiences of persecution are deeply inscribed into his Christian allegory. It is a spiritual autobiography by a remarkable man who refused to allow anything to compromise his principles.
But it is also a work that is acutely perceptive and revealing about the psychological condition of the radical Protestant of his time. The visionary society of the English Republic had collapsed and Puritans were no longer the dominant force in society. The pressure was on Bunyan and other spiritual leaders among the Puritans to enthusiastically justify their beliefs and demonstrate their righteousness, ... Read More:

Concentrating on Flora Thompsons time as a post office assistant in Grayshott, Hampshire. Heatherley continues in the same beautifully written vein as the more well known Lark Rise to Candleford stories. I finished this book in a day or so and found I just couldn't put it down. Like Lark Rise, this is more of a personal memoir than a story, and it is incredibly heartwarming and moving to realise that the many characters written here were real living, breathing people with very different stories and experiences that Thompson writes with real humanity and feeling.

Tells the story of the 1845 Franklin expedition in which all 128 men were lost without trace while trying to navigate a course through the North-West Passage. The book tells also of the numerous rescue missions which were launched at the behest of Lady Franklin, which failed to find any trace. Their fate was finally discovered by the great Orcadian explorer Robert Rae, and among his reports was how they had resorted to canibalism. The idea that Victorian gentlemen might behave in such a matter was unnacceptable, and Rae's reputation was rubbished by Charles Dickens among others. And so Rae, who should have been recorded as one of the great innovators of Britich Arctic exploration was sidelined and ignored. It is entirely likely that if his innovations ... Read More:

I love this book, it's so handy to have all of their fairy tales in one, and the old style illustrations are charming. Call me childish, but I never get tired of reading fairy tales. This book is also good bargain - can you imagine what it would cost to buy all of the fairy tales book by book?
