Horae Apocalypticae is an eschatological study written by Edward
Bishop Elliott. The book is, as its long-title sets out, "A
commentary on the apocalypse, critical and historical; including
also an examination of the chief prophecies of Daniel illustrated
by an apocalyptic chart, and engravings from medals and other
extant monuments of antiquity with appendices, containing, besides
other matter, a sketch of the history of apocalyptic
interpretation, the chief apocalyptic counter-schemes and indices."
"Horae Apocalypticae (Hours with the Apocalypse) is doubtless the
most elaborate work ever produced on the Apocalypse. Without an
equal in exhaustive research in its field, it was occasioned by the
futurist attack on the Historical School of interpretation. Begun
in 1837, its 2,500 pages are buttressed by some 10,000 invaluable
references to ancient and modern works.
Horae Apocalypticae is a commentary on the apocalypse, critical and
historical; including also an examination of the chief prophecies
of Daniel. It is doubtless the most elaborate work ever produced on
the Apocalypse. Editors Note, 2018 Quin. Ed. E. B Elliot finished
his great work about the year 1860. The nature of the Historicist
method of interpretation is such that the line of fulfilled
prophecy is continually moving with the passage of time. The
interpretation of which necessarily requires a certain amount of
speculation which must be verified before accepted as true. As well
intentioned as many are the passage of time will overthrow the best
of expositors on some points of which time would reveal to be mere
speculation. Though the bulk of Mr. Elliot's work still stands the
test of time, time has unveiled a more likely or true
interpretation on some points. The editors herein have made some
updates commensurate.

The challenge was to train a security force for the Volta River
Authority in Ghana. This account tells how Roy Bishop, ill prepared
and poorly equipped, came to terms with this adventure, and how the
people and the land affected him and gradually changed his
knowledge of himself and life. The story illustrates the
challenges, trials and amusing incidents throughout the author's
stay in Ghana-situations or incidents which today, in the time of
the mobile phone, could not have happened, but did in 1986. For
those interested in Africa and the activity of private contract men
working in this Dark Continent, the story will surely be
fascinating. Magic Ju Ju, the poverty of the people, the savagery
of some, the loyalty and the friendship of others, make up this
collection of tales within the story. This was a lesson in life.
This study attempts to chart the progress of Virginia Woolf's major
novels, listing the several hundred reviews and essays she
published during her lifetime, and records her work with the
Hogarth Press. It also traces her friendships with notable figures
including T.S.Eliot, E.M.Forster, Katherine Mansfield and Vita
Sackville-West and records her meetings with personalities as
diverse as Henry James, Lady Diana Cooper, Sigmund Freud and the
Princess de Polignac.;While it notes Woolf's extensive reading, as
well as her travels and her illnesses, it also sketches the major
artistic and political events of the day.;Edward Bishop has
published articles on Virginia Woolf's novels and essays and has
edited the manuscript draft of Woolf's first experimental novel,
"Jacob's Room".
This book, first published in 1960, is a close examination of the
twelve most decisive weeks in British history. It looks at the
responsibility of pre-war politicians for the preparedness of the
air defence system, the conflicting views on the conduct of the
battle on both sides, the attitude of the US, and the part played
by such leading figures as Dowding, Park, Beaverbrook, Kesselring
and Sperle.
