This precious little book contains three lectures -- "The Mystery of the Virgin Mary in Body, Soul, and Spirit" -- presented during the Christmas Holy Nights of 1950/51. On November 1, 1950, Pius XII proclaimed the Dogma of the Assumption--Mary's bodily assumption into heaven--which sent shock waves throughout the Christian world. C.G. Jung, for example, wrote his Answer to Job in response. Emil Bock's response was these lectures, which answer some of the issues and broaden the scope to include not only the Mary-Sophia mystery in human history, but also the meaning of the feminine element in the evolution of consciousness. Anyone interested in an anthroposophic perspective on Mary in body, soul, and spirit will gain much from this book.

This remarkable story exposes the Sherman tank scandal of World War II, involving some of the biggest American names and stretching from the White House and Pentagon to factories and battlefronts. Outgunned by more powerful German opponents, the inferiority of American tanks led to some of the worst setbacks of the war, prolonging it in Europe. US tankers ultimately prevailed, but over 60,000 armored division soldiers were killed and wounded; their preventable sacrifice inspired the Hollywood movie Fury. Included are striking images of the Sherman's adversaries (photographed exclusively at the National Museum of Cavalry and Armor), along with original equipment, documents, period propaganda, and vintage photos of Sherman tanks in action. As a German officer noted, "I was on this hill with six 88mm antitank guns...Every time they sent a tank, we knocked it out. Finally we ran out of ammunition, and the Americans didn't run out of tanks."

On the outside, Christian appears to be a quiet but typical girl, but on the inside, she is anything but ordinary. Growing up with an emotionally impaired father and a loving mother has made life extremely difficult. Now, at 22 years of age, she knows what her mission in life is, and is fighting every day to work towards it, while learning how to do things like love a dad who doesn't seem to care about anyone but himself. As Christian continues to make her way through life, she is met with much heartache and strife, while trying to find people who truly understand her. Through all of the struggles though, her belief in Christ remains strong and is the only factor that has helped her to never give up or give in.
