The History of Christian Europe - G R Evans
Spanning more than a millennium, this unique study follows the development, expansion, and impact of the world's largest religion on the European continent Beginning with the initial transmission of Jesus's teaching throughout the Roman world, this expansive history follows the astounding development of Christianity within Europe. From the religion's earliest days through the Reformation and Counter-Reformation, its development in the scientific age of the 17th and 18th centuries on, and its place in the modern world, Christianity's role in transforming and shaping the cultural, social, political, and intellectual progress of the continent is traced. The accessible and informative narrative is complemented by boxed texts highlighting key events and concepts, such as monastic life, the development of icons, the impact of Darwin's "The Origin of Species," the rise of prophecy, and the influence of psychology.

The Fox and the flies: The world of Joseph Silver Racketeer & Psychopath - Charles van Onselen
R365,00
At the end of the nineteenth century European pimps and 'white slavers' established a hugely successful global market for commercial sex. Criminal syndicates from Buenos Aires to London and from Cape Town to New York were able to organise the seduction or rape of women in under-developed parts of Europe and their 'export' as prostitutes to meet an insatiable demand for sexual services. For three turbulent decades before the First World War, Joseph Silver - brothel-owner, pimp and trafficker in women on four continents - was central to this hidden world of betrayal, intrigue, lust and sexual slavery. Burglar, gun-runner, jewel-thief, rapist, safe-cracker and sodomist, Silver's notoriety was captured in the most confidential correspondence of a dozen countries in the western world. What those in charge of law-enforcement agencies kept to themselves, however, was how their officers had attempted to use Silver as an informer to infiltrate syndicates built on 'vice', only to have him outwit them as he moved in the dangerous space between police and prostitutes. A disturbed adolescent, youthful predator and adult misogynist driven by dark biblical and medieval obsessions, Silver's mental universe remained largely hidden from his family, other gangsters and police handlers. In this first reconstruction of the life of a dangerous psychopath, Charles van Onselen situates the private life of one man amidst the demi-monde of the Atlantic world to identify the most infamous serial killer of all time - for Joseph Silver's darkest secret of all lay in London, in Whitechapel, in the autumn of 1888.

Stiffed - Susan Faludi
R200,00
With the publication of BACKLASH, Susan Faludi became a world-renowned authority on the gender war, and 'backlash' in the gender sense became a household word. STIFFED picks up where BACKLASH left off. It seeks to understand male behavior in order to close the chasm between the sexes, and asks the all-important question - why? Why are men so fear ful of women's independence? Why is a little liberation seen as too mu ch? What is it that men really fear, and why? The author shows that we should really focus on The Man Question; at the end of the millennium, it is men who are in crisis. She argues that we are all at the mercy of social forces distorting our lives. She takes us from the shuttered shipyards to the mass lay-offs of the defence industries, from Hollywood action heroes to gang-torn streets, from militia men to Promise Keepe rs, praying husbands to male porn actors. Faludi explores the economic , cultural and political roots of the crisis, unpacks the media messag es sent to men in the last twenty-five years, and charts new territory for male-female relations in the twenty-first century.

Stones against the mirror - Hugh Lewin
R150,00
A brave and moving memoir which is both a family history and a story of friendship and betrayal between people caught up in the wrenching forces of the South African Struggle. It is framed as a journey between two railway stations. The departure is from Park station Johannesburg and the destination is York station in Britain. It is an actual journey and the arrival at York is a real event, but it is also a symbolic journey in which Lewin describes his progress towards a meeting with Adrian Leftwich, the man who betrayed him to the Security Police in 1964. Park station is the point of departure because it was the site in 1964 of the station bomb planted by John Harris who was associated with the cell in which Lewin operated. The book therefore has a quest structure. After 40 years, Lewin is determined to meet with his long-term friend Leftwich both to find out what happened at his trial and to deal with the emotions of anger and bitterness that have assailed him ever since. Lewin’s subject is the culpability of betrayal.

Humphrey Gibbs Beleaguered Governor Southern Rhodesia, 1929-69 - Alan Megahey
Humphrey Gibbs was born into an Edwardian upper-class family in 1902. After Eton and Cambridge he emigrated in 1928 to Southern Africa, eventually deciding to farm in Southern Rhodesia. He was a prominent churchman, and was active in organizing the country's farmers. He promoted conservation before it was fashionable to do so. A reluctant MP, he welcomed the Federation of Rhodesia and Nyasaland, and supported the cause of multiracialism. Gibbs became Governor of Southern Rhodesia in 1959, and six years later was faced with the problem of UDI. He remained at Government House and was a conduit between the British government and the rebel regime, stepping down only after the country declared itself a republic. In retirement he watched civil war ravage the country he loved and he welcomed its evolution into Zimbabwe. He left his farm only when the dissident troubles in Matabeleland became too severe. His funeral took place in Harare Catherdral in November 1990.

Vereeniging: Die onvoltooide vrede - Leon Wessels
R160,00
In die boek Some Afrikaners Revisited van David Goldblatt, is daar 'n foto van 'n berede jong Afrikaner, geneem by 'n Nasionale Party-viering in 1964. Daardie jong man was in 1990 die eerste lid van die NP-regering wat verskoning vir apartheid gevra het, en in November 2009 het hy uitgetree as Menseregtekommissaris. Watter pad het hom tot hier gelei? En watter pad het Suid-Afrika in dieselfde tyd geloop? Wessels vertel pakkend van die groot politieke veranderings wat hy beleef het, as minister in die laaste apartheidskabinet, as grondwetonderhandelaar en menseregte-kommissaris. Maar dis 'n groter verhaal wat hy vertel. "Dit maak my vies wanneer apartheid die skuld kry vir alles wat skeef loop," se hy. "Dit maak my net so vies wanneer mense maak asof apartheid geen impak het op hedendaagse vraagstukke nie." Met sy vertrekpunt dat die nuwe Suid-Afrika se grondwet op die aandrang van Nelson Mandela by Vereeninging onderteken is, waar ook die Vrede onderteken is wat die Unie tot stand gebring het, vra hy die vraag hoe ver ons op die weg van vereniging gevorder het. Hy beantwoord dit aan die hand van vyf groot temas: die regstaat, menseregte, rassisme, versoening, en armoede. Wessels, wat 'n ver pad gekom het sedert sy berede dae, praat oorredend en met ontwapenende eerlikheid oor nasionale en eie dwalings.

Bidsprinkaan - 'n ware storie - Andre P Brink
R150,00
Afrika se eeue oue magiesheid en hartstog vorm die agtergrond van die intiem verweefde komedie en tragedie in hierdie roman. Dit is gebaseer op die historiese figuur Kupido Kakkerlak (c. 1760 – c. 1825) se lewe. Maar die raaisel van 'n mens se lewe word ten beste met die verbeelding benader. Kupido is nie gebore nie, 'n arend het hom gebring. In daardie tyd het ook 'n bidsprinkaan verskyn - 'n teken van die gode. Wonderwerke het soos optelgoed op die aarde rondgele. Nadat Heitsi-Eibib in die veld aan Kupido verskyn het, raak hy as baasjagter bekend tot ver buite die grense van die boereplaas waar hy grootword. Hy is ook die drinker, leuenaar, minnaar en bakleier van die kontrei. Onder die sendeling dr. Van der Kemp se invloed word hy egter die eerste Khoi wat as sendeling aan die Kaap die Goeie Hoop georden is.

Inboekeling - Hans du Plessis
R120,00
He was dragged onto the yard by a thong. A boy. A stranger. Off balance on his clumsy feet, the floppy hat pulled down low over his jug ears, red in the face because of the thong around his neck. The people gawking at him were not used to strangers. Here where they stay no-one has lived before. Their leader led their trek here more or less six years ago, dug the heel of his velskoen into the ground, made a possessive sweep with his big hand and declared the area his property. Here his word was law. The pastor confirmed his authority through the Bible. Also over the indentured, those children brought back to the laager after punitive raids against the indigenous people. The fathers and mothers were shot –stock thieves surely, all of them – and the children were carried away to be reared as slaves.The indentured.The boy on the rope sees a black girl staring at him from under the peak of a bonnet. Only later, locked up in a smithy, will he discover who and what she is. And when he is taken along on an expedition to recapture stolen stock, he is confronted with the horrid reality of her life: a child who was snatched from between the corpses of her parents and carried away on the saddle of a horseman.And it will be this simple boy, dragged onto that trekkers’ yard by a thong, who will bring it home in that godforsaken hinterland that there is no bond as durable, no rope as strong, as the commitment a heart makes.

Spud: Learning to Fly - John van de Ruit
R100,00
As Spud Milton continues his diabolical stagger through adolescence, he learns one of life's most important lessons: when dealing with women and cretins, nothing is ever quite as it seems. 'I'm practically a man in most areas', writes Spud confidently on his sixteenth birthday. The year is 1992 and, as always in South Africa, radical change is in the air. The country may be on the bumpy road to an uncomfortable redemption, but Spud Milton is hoping for a smooth ride as he returns to boarding school as a senior. Instead, he discovers that his vindictive arch enemy is back to taunt him and that a garrulous Malawian has taken residence in his dormitory, along with the regular inmates and misfits he calls friends. Spud's world has never seemed less certain; he attempts to master Shakespeare, wrestles constantly with God and the power of negative thinking, and develops an aversion to fried fish after a shocking discovery about his grandmother, Wombat.
