Driven by the Monsoons

Barry Cunliffe tells the story of trade across the Indian Ocean using the evidence of archaeology and the tales of great travellers, showing how, across thousands of years, humans have been driven by need and the sheer desire to own exotic goods to create and maintain trade routes whatever the difficulties.

The Fires of Moloch

A study of the clergymen contributors to the 1917 book, The Church in the Furnace, exploring their approach to ministry before the war; how the war did or did not change them; what they said during the war about how the Church and society needed to change; and how they lived out their lives and ministries after the war.
