Paperback. Condizione: Good. Good Friday People is a profoundly honest and moving book, a book that looks unflinchingly at the reality of suffering. Following the journey of Jesus towards the Cross, Sheila Cassidy encourages us to walk alongside him and alongside her 'Good Friday people' - a motley group of saints and sinners mysteriously called to share the suffering of Christ. Some them are victims of violence like Archbishop Romero and other caught up in oppression in El Salvador; Victor Jara who was tortured and killed in Chile; the people of Auschwitz. Other suffer physical illness like Fr Jimmy Doherty, a priest with multiple sclerosis; David, a boy with a brain tumour, and Suzi Lovegrove, a woman with AIDS. Sheila Cassidy invites us to share the pain of her Good Friday people, and so to share more deeply in Jesus' story. It is a difficult, often harrowing, journey, but one which takes us beyond the Cross, helping us to meet the risen Christ who is 'permeating the suffering, suffusing the darkness'.…

Hardback. Condizione: Good. To environmentalists, wilderness is a valuable resource and a sacred place; to many ranchers, wilderness means eviction and government interference. Russell, herself a westerner, here tackles the complex and controversial issues of land health and wildlife in the West. A provocative and enlightening account.-Publishers Weekly Rising larger than life against the Western horizon, the cowboy sits astride his horse right in the middle of American mythology, husbanding our ideals of freedom, independence, and valor. And grazing his cattle on the wide-open land, he leaves a dusty trail: weeds spring up, scrub brush flourishes, wildlife declines, ground compacts, soil erodes, streambeds turn into dry gullies. Treading a fine line between the idyllic myth and the harsh facts of real-life ranching, this book offers a measured look at the struggle over the future of the American West, where visions of the land sharply divide between those who want to use it, those who want to save it from abuse, and those who see a middle way. Fairly-though envisioning a revamping of the current grazing system-Sharman Apt Russell describes the present battles that pit ranchers against environmentalists, new Westerners against old, private concerns against government policies. The story she tells is dramatic, animated with the distinctive personalities and contentious episodes that have shaped current debates. It is also scrupulously attentive to the details of history, politics, and economics in the region. Grounded in a deep respect for land, this elegantly written, well-reasoned book begins the work of reevaluating our heroic myths and immediate needs in a way that will prove sustainable for all the West's inhabitants. Take the cowboy, please, and send him packing, along with all his mythological baggage--or so argues Russell. . . in this provocative and iconoclastic study. . . . Russell takes a cultural icon and, in one bold stroke, brings it full circle from myth to menace. The West needs a new image, and she's given us many to choose from.-Kirkus Reviews.…
