Bøger af David Rudd

You don't have to be a churchgoer to appreciate this book. Mr Rudd will guide you quickly through England's often changing religious history and tell you how this imposing church evolved and adapted itself over the centuries leaving clues still to be seen today. Brilliantly written; it is a pleasure to read. Nick Tracken This history of the local Church in St Neots is so detailed and interesting a journey, with an eye always to the wider perspective of national affairs, and its informative diversions - an altogether enjoyable read. The Revd Canon Melvyn Barnsley St Mary's parish church has stood at the centre of St Neots for over five hundred years, a testament to the strong religious beliefs of our medieval ancestors. From Anglo-Saxon beginnings to the dissolution of the monasteries and the later growth of nonconformity, David Rudd brings together national events and local people in a very readable book. Elizabeth Davies, Curator St Neots Museum. A church guidebook? This little book offers a peep into the story of every parish and parish church in England. Gertrud Wheel

Blyton has captivated children worldwide for almost eighty years, but there has been very little serious critical attention paid to her. It is the first study to draw extensively on the view of her readership, past and present, and to use a variety of critical approaches to show how adult criticism has consistently missed the secret of her appeal.
