The vast literature on Our Lady of Guadalupe dominates the study of shrines and religious practices in Mexico. But there is much more to the story of shrines and images in Mexico’s religious history than Guadalupe and Marian devotion. In this book a distinguished historian brings together his new and recent essays on previously unstudied or reconsidered places, themes, patterns, and episodes in Mexican religious history during the seventeenth, eighteenth, and nineteenth centuries. William Taylor explores the use of local and regional shrines as well as devotion to images of Christ and Mary, including Our Lady of Guadalupe, to get to the heart of the politics and practices of faith in Mexico before the Reforma. Each of these essays touches on methodological and conceptual matters that open out to processes and paradoxes of change and continuity, exposing the symbolic complexity behind the material representations.

A powerful story based on the real-life experiences of hundreds of British children who were sent as war refugees to New Zealand and Australia during the Second World War. Fourteen-year-old Jake suffers cruelly at the hands of a rural family, only to be offered sanctuary and eventual redemption by the elderly town doctor, Mac. His story is complex, dealing graphically with issues of community attitudes to violence and discipline and Jake''s eventual response to his treatment is not what you might expect. Not a conventional ''morality'' tale by any means, taylor deals masterfully with the reality of revenge and retribution, handling the issues with skill. Gritty, and definitely not for younger readers, the story of Jake contains vivid descriptions of violence and cruelty to animals that need maturity to handle - hence the cover design, intended to clearly signal that this is not a book for younger readers.

Memoirs of a leading children''s author In his warm, witty and erudite memoir, William taylor writes about life as an author and teacher in rural New Zealand, raising two young sons as a solo father. Always a character, from 1960 to 1986 he taught in Central and the Lower North Island, usually in single or two-teacher schools. After his first book Burnt carrots don''t have legs, a comic look at rural teaching, he wrote six adult novels. Principal of Ohakune Intermediate School from 1979-1986, and Mayor of Ohakune 1981-1988, his hilarious account of the unveiling of the Ohakune carrot is counterbalanced by the experiences of a gay man in public life during the passing of the Homosexual Law Reform Bill, which saw him chair rowdy public meetings with farmers and Christian fundamentalists. In 1986 he retired to write fulltime and for 15 years produced one or two books a year. His works have been adapted for television and the theatre, and some have been continously in print in the US for over twenty years. He has won the Choysa Bursary, writing fellowships to Palmerston North College of Education and the University of Iowa, numerous writing awards and an OBE for services to children''s literature. Following major heart surgery in 1994 William taylor has lived quietly at Raurimu, and his delightfully self-deprecating memoir is destined to become a classic for all lovers of children''s literature and good writing.

Stott''s diary reveals a soldier who was also a scholar in camp and on the march, one who took every available moment to read theology, philosophy, great literary works, and a few novels. He also had a playful side, slyly exposing a dry wit and a sense of humor that can sneak up on the reader.

In this book, William Taylor tells in his own words the story of a foundational episode in his life. Following his trial ministry as a Methodist circuit rider in his home state of Virginia and his service of pastorates in the historic North Baltimore Conference, William Taylor (1821-1902) was commissioned as a missionary to California at the beginning of the Gold Rush Era. His subsequent ''seven years of street preaching in San Francisco'' set the stage for a half-century missionary career during which Taylor championed self-supporting missions to every populated continent, funded by the publication of his widely-read books.
