„The gable paintings of the world-famous Chapel Bridge in Lucerne are a highly interesting “open” history book. They comprise important events of the history of Lucerne and Switzerland. During the night of August 17, 1993, a devastating fire almost completely destroyed the Chapel Bridge, one of Switzerland’s most famous landmarks and symbol of the city of Lucerne. Of the 111 paintings, which at the time used to adorn the gables of the 14th century wooden bridge, the fire destroyed 86. Among the 76 paintings of the most important series, which is about the history of Lucerne and the Swiss Confederation, three quarters were either severely or completely destroyed. The 76 panels about the first cycle, “Lucerne and the emergent Confederation,” from the replica series by Dr. Jost Schumacher, are displayed in this audio guide. „An interesting feature of the new publications of audio guides is the 24 reproduced photographs of the original paintings, taken shortly before the devastating fire in 1993.“

"This exhibition is the first to offer an extensive overview of the Museum's holdings of early Central European drawings, many of which were acquired in the last two decades. An emphasis on works by later sixteenth- and seventeenth-century artists is balanced by a selection of German drawings from the fifteenth and earlier sixteenth century, of which some of the most exceptional ones--including works by Albrecht Deurer--entered the Museum with The Robert Lehman Collection in 1975."--Publisher's website.

Adventures in 86 countries. Intelligence Officer in Germany during the Cold War. Vietnam-era U.S. Army veteran. Diplomat. Corporate President at age 40. Fatherhood. Grief after the death of his wife of 40 years and the death of his son at age 48 when he wrote, “Grief is a temporary insanity that the sane can barely imagine” and finding love again later in life, “I feel lucky that the magic of love could happen at my age and I marvel at the capricious nature of life”. The 85-year old author remembers his life of adventure and personal accomplishment with humor and thought-provoking reflections on life and history. His inquisitive mind and descriptive writing provide an interesting reading experience. This is an adventure story, it is a love story and it is a story of grief and loss. The book-ending “Thoughts of An Old Man” may be pondered long after you have finished reading. Jim McGee is a graduate of UCLA, Wayne State University and Harvard University School of Business. This is his sixth book.

Then outside a deserted lonely train station at one in the morning, they are almost abducted and robbed, only to be saved by their guide book! This is a book to make you laugh at their blunders and decide travel is truly the ultimate learning experience!

This sixth volume of the Buildings of Wales series covers two counties, Carmarthenshire and Ceredigion (formerly Cardiganshire) in the south-west of Wales. Like the same authors' Pembrokeshire, the volume covers an architecture still little known, hut encompassing a sweep from prehistoric chambered tombs to the high technology of the world's largest single-span glasshouse. The Buildings of Wales, founded by Sir Nikolaus Pevsner (1902-83), will, when complete, document and describe the architecture of the Principality in seven regional volumes, complementing the sister series on England, Ireland and Scotland. In each one a gazetteer details all buildings of significance from megalithic tombs and Iron Age hill-forts, via grand seventeenth-century houses to Victorian domestic extravaganzas, great industrial centres and monumental public buildings. The countryside is explored to reveal churches, chapels, farmhouses, and traces of early industry. The gazetteer is complemented by an introduction which explains the broader context and builds a complete picture of the country's architectural identity. Each work is illustrated by numerous maps, plans and photographs, completed by glossaries and indexes, and gives a comprehensive and illuminating survey of the buildings of Wales.

“For a guy who has never set foot outside the USA, I feel like a seasoned world traveler, thanks to Alton Loveless who picks me up on his magic carpet called “Monday Moments.” We’ve uncovered history in London, waded in the Jordan River, heard the roar of hunting lions in Africa, and cheered American servicemen at 30,000 feet returning home from far-flung battlefields. Climb aboard—we saved a seat for you.” —Dr. Jack Williams, Director of Communications, FWBBC, Nashville, Tennessee. "Call me a world traveler, yet I’ve rarely crossed the borders of my own country. Still I’ve traveled far and wide in the words of Dr. Alton Loveless over the past few years. Dr. Loveless is an inspiration and wonder, all wrapped up in the flesh of a man. Here’s a man who has visited countless nations, spoke in some of the most exotic and remote churches on the globe, yet when he recounts his travels in print it is as if I am there climbing that mountain, or sitting in that airplane seat looking out over the wing at the mountains and valleys of some remote region. I first met Dr. Loveless when a minister in the town where I manage the hometown newspaper came into my office to introduce me to their new associate pastor. He told me how Dr. Alton Loveless had spent many decades in the printing field — having worked for and managed a publishing house for much of his career. It didn’t take but a couple weeks for me to be introduced to the new minister’s writings. Immediately I was hooked. In the years since, Dr. Loveless became a regular contributor to the local newspaper with a weekly column. He quickly drew a following of faithful readers. Countless times I’ve been thanked by readers for including his works in the local paper by his friends and neighbors ... and in many cases, complete strangers who were drawn to the pictures he painted with words. Whether it be the reader who’s lot in life has kept them from traveling abroad, or the traveler who longs to experience more beyond his or her borders — Dr. Alton Loveless can take you there. I’m sure you will find his travel writings to be every bit as realistic, entertaining and enjoyable as my readers has." --Doug Smith, General Manager, Farmington Press "With an adventurous spirit, Dr. Loveless has journaled his lifetime travels that parallel a rich and inspiring spiritual journey in His Father ́s world. Sit down with a cup of coffee and enjoy the ride!" --Dr. Greg Sergent, Pastor, Wise, Virginia. " ́Monday Moments ́ is a favorite read for me. Its short, inspiring narrative is just what I need to begin my week." --Winnie Yandell, Pastor’s wife, Oklahoma. "My wife and I have enjoyed reading all the articles that you have sent out called ́Monday Moments ́. They are always spiritually uplifting and fascinating reading. Please continue writing them." --Gerald & Norma McAllister, Nashville, Tennessee. "I have enjoyed and appreciated the ́Monday Moments ́ articles I have read. Having lived in another country myself for many years, I like the way you often utilize traveling experiences to relate them to God ́s eternal truth and man ́s need. God bless you and thanks." --Earnie Deeds, Oklahoma. Retired Missionary to Brazil. "Dr. Loveless your stories are fascinating and I enjoy reading them." --Dr. Ramakrishna Venkatesh, University of Kentucky Medical School- Professor/Surgeon. "As a bi-vocational pastor I am blessed to be able to receive ́Monday Moments ́ on my PC. It’s refreshing and uplifting to read about Dr. Loveless’ travels and experiences - always given with a perspective of God’s word." --Don White, Pastor, Bristol, TN. "Dr. Loveless’s ́Monday Moments ́ are interesting and his descriptions of places where he and his wife have visited are always vivid and enticing. His writing is refreshing in that it reveals appreciation of God’s glory and grandeur se
