Books with title The Old Testament

Troy Phelan is a self-made billionaire, one of the richest men in the United States. He is also eccentric, reclusive, confined to a wheelchair, and looking for a way to die. His heirs, to no one's surprise - especially Troy's - are circling like vultures. Nate O'Riley is a high-octane Washington litigator who's lived too hard, too fast, for too long. His second marriage is in a shambles, and he is emerging from his fourth stay in rehab armed with little more than his fragile sobriety, good intentions, and resilient sense of humor. Returning to the real world is always difficult, but this time it's going to be murder. Rachel Lane is a young woman who chose to give her life to God, who walked away from the modern world with all its strivings and trappings and encumbrances, and went to live and work with a primitive tribe of Indians in the deepest jungles of Brazil. In a story that mixes legal suspense with a remarkable adventure, their lives are forever altered by the startling secret of The Testament

Jjj Or FOREWORD LELF-RESPECTING persons, young as well as old, dislike being talked down to, especially in words of one syllable. There are of course, many matters beyond the comprehension of children, which no language can make intelligible. But much of the zest of the game of reading comes from the effort to use the tools of grown-ups. Children do not wish to descend to babytalk but to learn the language of men. A nd, therefore, there is no baby-talk in this book. Nor is there any lecturing or moralizing. There are only stories, stories that have been told more often than any others in our part of the world, and for a very good reason. As the source of these stories is the Bible, the sacred book of Jews and Christians, it has always been a problem what details to include or omit. But why tell stories except in so far as they are interesting? Ought not that to be the main test? Each story should stand on its own feet and hold the attention of the reader by virtue of its own dramatic power. We are confident the stories in this book will do so. A.
