THE FOLLOW-UP TO THE 2023 RONDO AWARD NOMINATED "GIANT BUG CINEMA" From the creators Giant Bug Cinema - A Monster Kid's Guide, which reached Number 1 on Amazon for Horror Movie Books, comes the followup, Giant Beast Cinema - A Monstrous Movie Guide - a celebration of creatures (other than bugs) that are beasts because they simply aren't supposed to be THAT BIG! Featuring sharp, witty, and informed reviews of 33 movies by six exceptional voices on genre cinema, take a cinematic hot rod through the screen-scape of giant apes, betrayed women, six-legged octopi, teenagers, crabs, and mollusks, to name a few of the featured giant beasts. The contributors are: ¿ Larry Blamire - film historian and cult filmmaker of Sony's The Lost Skeleton of Cadavra¿ Justin Humphreys - Rondo Award-winning The Doctor Phibes Companion, George Pal: Man of Tomorrow¿ Tracy Mercer - Host, My Favorite Shtty Movie podcast¿ Mike Peros - José Ferrer: Success and Survival, Dan Duryea: Heel with a Heart, film critic for Noho Arts District¿ Steven Peros - Giant Bug Cinema, film historian, screenwriter of Peter Bogdanovich's The Cat's Meow¿ Brian R. Solomon - Godzilla FAQ Each chapter contains the unique voice, vast memory bank, and idiosyncratic sense of humor of its distinctly mad author. These are all movies you may have watched many times and yet each one of these writers will make you see them in a way you had not seen them before. As with Giant Bug Cinema, the book explores this arena up until the accepted end of the "Monster Kid Era" - 1968 (although we did sneak in one worthy retro entry from 1969 because it was too enjoyable to resist). But rest assured, plans are afoot to bring our readers second volumes of both Giant Bug Cinema and Giant Beast Cinema, which will take readers into the gonzo 1970's, 1980's and beyond. You will step way from Giant Beast Cinema with a new level of appreciation for giant beasts you only thought you knew. But then again, can one ever really know a killer shrew?

An important 15th century source throws light on the organisation of what was one of medieval England's wealthiest ports.

'British Depth Studies c500-1100 (Anglo-Saxon and Norman Britain)' is a collaboration between academic specialists and experienced schoolteachers to provide a reliable and up-to-date summary of Anglo-Saxon and Norman England, complete with original sources, for use in schools. In particular, it is designed for students and teachers preparing for the new GCSE 'Anglo-Saxon and Norman England' British Depth Study components of the Edexcel and AQA examination boards. Eight chapters, each prefaced with a timeline and an overview, deal systematically and clearly with all the key issues defined in the exam specifications. Each chapter concludes with exam-style questions and guidance for further reading. The book provides students with a useful section detailing the character of the question types set by both examination boards and guidance on what is required to achieve a high grade at GCSE. At the end of the book is an essential glossary. 'British Depth Studies c500-1100 (Anglo-Saxon and Norman Britain)' includes many carefully chosen primary sources, a large number of which have never before been made available to students at this level. These serve to provide a richer, fuller flavour of the period than other textbooks. The sources are 'folded' organically into the narrative, so that history is presented in its most attractive format: as a story.

An exciting, fresh look at one of the most important questions of medieval scholarship - the decline of serfdom and its implications.

This text is a survey of the most influential theoretical approaches adopted for the study of medieval economy and society. It offers a readily intelligible introduction to medieval economic history, a critique of established models, and a succinct treatise on historiographical method.

Each book of the New Testament is introduced and investigated with scholarship and biblical faithfulness. Includes all the information usually found in a Bible handbook - author, date, historical background, purpose, outline.

Most Christians know that Jesus commanded his followers to "Go therefore and make disciples of all nations." Yet many remain unclear about what Christ intended such a disciple should be or do. Recognizing that now, more than ever, believers need clear, biblical teaching on this all-important subject, author Mark Bailey provides a biblical measuring stick to help readers discern what it means to be the type of disciple Christ urges us to be. Drawing upon humor, simple visuals, and memorable principles to drive home this vital message, Bailey offers a fresh, authoritative teaching for the 90s on what it means to be a true disciple.

The first volume in what will become the definitive history of Suffolk looks at how the county survived the three most tumultuous events of the period, the Great Famine, the Black Death and the Peasants' Revolt, to emerge as one of the richest English regions.

A theory of the margin has long featured in the work of medieval historians. Marginal regions are taken to be those of poor soil or geographical remoteness, where farmers experienced particular difficulties in grain production. It is argued that such regions were cultivated only when demographic pressure intensified in the thirteenth century.
