There was a quaint British convention under which executions were stopped and sentence commuted if scheduled to take place on the day the sovereign died. Alfred Moore was doubly unfortunate: still protesting his innocence he was on the scaffold an hour before the death of King George VI was announced. Here, Jim Morris re-assesses the evidence in this case of the double murder of two police officers and shows why the trial at Leeds Assizes was a travesty of justice - packed with mistakes, inaccuracies, dubious recollections and supposition. Set against the social backdrop of 1950s West Yorkshire, the book stresses the need for caution where witness accounts may be driven by preconceptions or 'fit' too tidily and adds to the voices of those calling for justice in a case in which prosecutors almost certainly got the wrong man. 'I read the book with a growing sense of disquiet and unease and was left with a feeling that a terrible miscarriage of justice might well have occurred': Campbell Malone."

The Day The World Died is K. D. McPhee's creative fiction centered around his childhood discovery of an old piece of his dad's torn literature that contained the ancient teachings of the prophets. They spoke of a coming Redeemer who would rescue the human race from its selfishness. We were prepared to experience paradise. Instead we got paradise squared. We were asked to get use to our eternalized bodies. Instead, we were taken to a secluded area where all immortals were told to exercise our deathlessness. To exercise one's deathlessness was to be sure of his eternalness.The story concludes with there being no progression of time in this new reality; time was a well spent former commodity. The Creator always desired that His people would be eternalized. In the time belt, choice was given to the human creation to reveal the righteousness of our leader - King of all kings and Lord of all lords.

A short biography of one of the most recognized yet still mysterious women in the world, Queen Elizabeth II, from the New York Times bestselling author of The Kingdom Elizabeth of York was not born to be Queen. She came into the world on April 21st, 1926, the equivalent of the modern Princess Beatrice, first-born daughter of the Duke of York, destined to flutter on the royal fringe. So while Lilibet was brought up with almost religious respect for the crown, there seemed no chance of her inheriting it. Her head was never turned by the personal prospect of grandeur—which is why she would prove so very good at her job. Elizabeth II’s lack of ego was to prove the paradoxical secret of her greatness. For more than thirty years acclaimed author and royal biographer Robert Lacey has been gathering material from members of the Queen’s inner circle—her friends, relatives, private secretaries, and prime ministers. Now, in The Queen, Lacey offers a life of the celebrated monarch, told in four parts that capture the distinctive flavor of passing eras, and reveal how Elizabeth II adapted—or, on occasions, regally declined to adapt—to changing times.

It’s a story of love for this king’s great father; it’s a story of giving and knowing what’s right; and also knowing what’s wrong. It’s a story of this kings own beliefs but are they honest and true do and you believe he’s right? This King shall soon find out when the day of truth comes forth. He feels better for what he did for the creatures that day but their lives will never again be the same, he had taken so much from them and feels he gave back so very little. As great and wise of a king he was he never really saw the reality of what he did that day, the day that he met and talked to one of these magnificent creatures and it opened up its heart to him and it shared all its pain. This is the King’s story and he wants you to know that sometimes it’s far too late to ever turn back. He wants you to know that sometimes the decisions that you make today could affect your life and the life of others for the rest of your lives. He wants you to know that before you take foolish action on your feelings inside you should be sure that you’re pure about your emotions inside or your life will be tainted and full of heartache and the people or creatures all around you will be doomed and sentenced to a life of sorrow and pain.

The subject of which day Christ died began to be hotly debated a few hundred years after His death. In the council of AD 325, the leaders of the Roman "Imperial Church" thought it to be in the best interest of the Church to disassociate their ritual celebration of the death and resurrection of Christ, which they now called "Easter," away from the annual Jewish Passover event. They actually wanted to divert attention from the Jewishness of Jesus. In doing so, these "fathers" guided Christendom away from the biblical reality as expressed by Paul-"Christ our Passover was sacrificed for us" (1 Corinthians 5:7). This error has been locked into the celebration for over 1,600 years, not only by the Roman Catholics, but also by most of Protestantism. This is a fresh study which will have some surprises for most students of the subject, due to the controversy surrounding the chronology. It will re-align the death of Jesus Christ squarely upon the biblical setting of the Passover theme as presented in the gospels. Above all, it will demonstrate beyond any shadow of a doubt that the four gospels harmonize perfectly on the subject. It also establishes that Christ died precisely on the eve of Passover, when the lambs were being sacrificed in the Temple services. This Bible study will - Enrich our appreciation of the Divine arrangement in redemption. Demonstrate the flawless consistency of the biblical record. Correct Christendom's traditional day celebrating Christ's death. Strengthen the Christian's new freedom in Christ.

A king's death was a highly dramatic moment, with major political consequences. Death in battle, whether that of Harold at Hastings or Richard III at Bosworth, could end a dynasty, while the secret murders of Edward II, Richard II, and Edward V blighted the fortunes of their murderers. Full of fascinating detail and personal information about the char-acters and attitudes of English kings and queens, The Death of Kings thoroughly chronicles royal deaths in medieval times and shows how various writers, including Shakespeare, drew meaning and morals from these deaths, giving them an imaginative and symbolic resonance that has lasted until the present day.
