Emsworth has a unique character. The marketplace at the centre of the town is a reminder of Emsworth's beginnings: as a small hamlet with a weekly market to serve the needs of farmers. It later developed as a centre for milling, fishing, shipbuilding and coastal trade. By the 18th century Emsworth was a thriving port. This highly readable account shows how the harbour helped to shape and define the community. Generations of Emsworth families earned their livings as fishermen, boat builders, sail and rope makers, or as seamen on vessels engaged in trade. The Emsworth oyster had national renown for its flavour during the 19th century. Emsworth's heritage is still in evidence: mill buildings have been converted to new uses and the two millponds have been preserved. Efforts are being made to restore the Terror, an Emsworth fishing boat built in the 19th century. This fascinating account of Emsworth's past is enhanced by a wide selection of superb illustrations, and will interest all those who live in and love the area.

Here are words of hope and inspiration. Decades have passed since their author, Robert Whitfield Miles, preached these words, but their value endures to benefit all who seek spiritual substance and focus in their lives. Firmly grounded in a vibrant Christian faith, the messages breathe optimism. The theme, which knits them together, is that Gods purposes for human beings shall triumph ultimately over evil. These purposes will grow steadily clearer to a person as Gods relationship with that person evolves. Graphically articulated, these messages offer compelling alternatives to fanaticism, exclusion, and bigotry. To read them is to glimpse the possibility of a future in concert with an accessible God who cares.The twenty-five sermons, or messages, are representative of Dr. Miles preaching in a ministry that spanned thirty-four years. Transcribed from recordings, their voice and cadence exemplify the great oral tradition of preaching in America and show remarkable literary vitality in addition to biblical interpretation and spiritual guidance.ROBERT WHITFIELD MILES, Presbyterian clergyman, scholar, and writer, devoted his pastoral career to the furtherance of Gods kingdom on earth and to building unity and ecumenism in the Christian community. Were he alive today, he would approach the future with the same optimism that so characterized his life and work in the past. Throughout his ministry he served four congregations: First Presbyterian Church, Greensboro, North Caroline, as assistant minister; First Presbyterian Church, Auburn, Alabama; Westminster Presbyterian Church, Lynchburg, Virginia; and First Presbyterian Church, Lexington, Kentucky, as minister. In addition to his sermons, Dr.Miles published numerous articles and two books: That Frenchman, John Calvin and Christian Reconstruction.

I had not seen Katherine for almost ten years when quite by accident I encountered her that first morning on the beach, but she was as beautiful as I remembered her. She still possessed an unforgettable presence, an inwardness, and a certain kind of dignity that had always created distances around her. The only thing that had changed was her eyes. I noticed that right away, even though the light was very dim. There was a tension that wasn't there before. The certainty was gone.
