Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Excerpt from The Garden and the Fire In Time of War. (To H. D. H.) Ah! if we lose - if this fair countryside, Where sleep our fathers, where our children play, Lay dumb beneath the footsteps of the foe; If here, our English liberty o'erthrown, Ruled foreign harshness, foreign pride of race; And all the heritage that we might leave our sons Were slavery, and shame to face the foe - What comfort then in books, or work, or ease, Or summer twilight on a rose-bowered lawn, And whispering winds among the dreaming elms! Crimson and gold of sunset on the sea Would seem the fires of Hell, were England dead - These fields her grave, our tears her memory. But if we win, and with our victory Gain lands and gold and hatred of the foe, Lust of this world, and blood-stained pride That holds Thy white humility in scorn, Better forego such spoils; - nay, best to know The utter blinding shame of sheer defeat. Lay Thou, O Lord, Thy lash across our backs, Bow these our stubborn heads, and from our hands Strike down the sword. Cut short our triumph-songs And bind our souls with helplessness and fear. Then from the ruins of the land we love, We Thy sad people, scourged with slavery, Perchance might lift our ravaged hearts to Thee. And had we neither house nor home nor king, Nor any name save much as serfs might bear, About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Islamic conceptions of heaven and hell began in the seventh century as an early doctrinal innovation, but by the twelfth century, these notions had evolved into a highly formalized ideal of perfection. In tracking this transformation, Nerina Rustomji reveals the distinct material culture and aesthetic vocabulary Muslims developed to understand heaven and hell and identifies the communities and strategies of defense that took shape around the promise of a future world. Ideas of the afterworld profoundly influenced daily behaviors in Islamic society and gave rise to a code of ethics that encouraged abstinence from sumptuous objects, such as silver vessels and silk, so they could be appreciated later in heaven. Rustomji conducts a meticulous study of texts and images and carefully connects the landscape and social dynamics of the afterworld with earthly models and expectations. Male servants and female companions become otherworldly objects in the afterlife, and stories of rewards and punishment helped preachers promote religious reform. By employing material culture as a method of historical inquiry, Rustomji points to the reflections, discussions, and constructions that actively influenced Muslims' picture of the afterworld, culminating in a distinct religious aesthetic.
