La cité de Jérusalem existe depuis près de 40 siècles, mais pour le peuple hébreux, elle entra dans l'histoire il y a 3000 ans lorsque David en fit sa capitale. Cet ouvrage rappelle les sept sommets historiques qui, de Jérusalem, ont bouleversé et bouleverseront encore la planète entière.

Jérusalem 3000

L'Apocalypse, un livre mystérieux, hermétique, voire effrayant ? Selon certains, oui. D'autres y voient, au contraire, une source extraordinaire d'encouragement, une fenêtre ouverte sur un avenir lumineux. Alors, pour se faire une opinion, rien de tel que de lire soi-même ces prophéties bibliques vieilles de 2000 ans, un bon commentaire à portée de main ! Auteur de plus d'une quinzaine d'ouvrages, scrutateur, commentateur et enseignant passionné des Ecritures, John H. Alexander nous aide à pénétrer dans le livre réputé le plus obscur de la Bible.

Accumulated over many years, 'Granny', the enigmatic collector behind this book, presents a selection of quirky post-war goods, advertising and kitchen items.

 In Granny's Kitchen Cupboard you'll find a remarkable array of British twentieth-century ephemera. From children's toys, boil dressings and chocolate wrappers to butane fuel and TCP, this selection is an incredible collection of innovative advertising designs, odd curios that have long since been replaced by modern technologies, and recognisable old brands. After the end of austerity in Britain in the early 1950s, consumerism boomed and these objects portray the societal change that followed.

 Beautifully arranged throughout, the contents of this book reflect aspects of a long life, most of it lived in a single house in the Home Counties. Nothing was thrown away - everything was recycled and reused in a way that says something about their time, in particular the thrifty mindset instilled by rationing in World War Two.

 The collection features old household brands that have evolved into various iterations into the present day, such as Harrods, Johnson's, Vaseline, Vicks, Elastoplast, the AA, Strepsils, W H Smith, Boots, Hoover, Happy Shopper and Lego. But this collection also features some odd items that may evoke nostalgia or even amusement, including fascinating catalogues, vintage pastille tins, an apothecary of unusual medicines, odd household cleaners not to mention rifle cartridges. The book also includes text that divulges the history and use of each object.
