Marpeck: A Life of Dissent and Conformity (Studies in Anabaptist and Mennonite History) By Walter Klaassen, William Klassen
2008 | 423 Pages | ISBN: 0836194233 | PDF | 4 MB
Pilgram Marpeck was a brilliant engineer and passionate theologian committed to justice and nonviolence. While thousands died during the tumultuous years of the Reformation, Marpeck consistently stood up to the ruling powers, calling for freedom of religion and separation of church and state. Walter Klaassen and William Klassen, editors of The Writings of Pilgram Marpeck, have deeply mined Marpeck' s writing and dialogue with other Reformation leaders placing his life, work, and theology in the context of his violent, changing times. This thorough biography shows that Marpeck, perhaps more than any other early Anabaptist figure, helped lay the theoretical and practical foundations of the believers church. Volume 44 in the Studies in Anabaptist and Mennonite History Series.

Mark and Livy: The Love Story of Mark Twain and the Woman Who Almost Tamed Him By Resa Willis
2003 | 336 Pages | ISBN: 041594774X | PDF | 8 MB
Olivia Langdon Clemens was not only the love of Mark Twain's life and the mother of his children, she was also his editor, muse, critic and trusted advisor. She read his letters and speeches. He relied on her judgment on his writing, and readily admitted that she not only edited his work, but also edited his public persona. Until now, little has been known about Livy's crucial place in Twain's life. In Resa Willis's affecting and fascinating biography, we meet a dignified, optimistic woman who married young, raised three sons and a daughter, endured myriad health problems and money woes and who faithfully traipsed all over the world with Twain - Africa, Europe, Asia-while battling his moodiness and her frailty. Twain adored her. A hard-drinking dreamer with an insatiable wanderlust, he needed someone to tame him. It was Livy who encouraged him to finish his autobiography even through the last stages of her illness. When she died in 1904, Twain's zest for life and writing was gone. He died six years later. A triumph of the biographer's art, Mark and Livy presents the fullest picture yet of one of the most influential women in American letters.
