THE COMPLETE ORIGINAL EDITION! An utterly revelatory work. Unprecedented in scope; detail; and ambition. In Lost Tribes and Promised Lands; celebrated historian and cultural critic Ronald Sanders offers a compelling and ideology-shattering history of racial prejudice and myth as shaped by political; religious; and economic forces from the 14th Century to the present day. Written with clear-eyed vigor; Sanders draws on a broad history of art; psychology; politics; and religion to inform his striking and soundly-reasoned assertions. Lost Tribes and Promised Lands nimbly zig-zags through space and time; doggedly chipping away at the myopic history of discovery and righteous conquest that has been reiterated for decades by the same ideological forces responsible for centuries of mythological prejudice and racial strife. Placing 14th Century Spanish intolerance (specifically anti-Semitism) as the origins of American racism toward African and Native Americans; Sanders elegantly weaves complex threads of colonial economics; religious exceptionalism; and xenophobia into a heady and often-infuriating thesis on the history of racism. Finally back in print in a complete and cost-accessible edition (when the book was out of print; demand for this important work was so intense that used copies sold for thousands of dollars). Find out why! Lost Tribes and Promised Lands is a gripping and hegemony-exploding treatise on the history of race in the New World.

Great instruction on drawing closer to God and possessing a stronger anointingBy Valerie CaraottaIf you were attracted to the title and perhaps the history of this fine author I will say with surety that this work will not disappoint!! It is a book for the serious of heart and desiring to draw closer to God and reap the benefits of communion and a greater anointing. Author A.W. Tozer holds nothing back in his straightforward way of revealing how sin; self; and pride are stumbling blocks preventing true union with God.In each of these chapters the reader will gain greater clarity on how to pursue God and follow hard after Him. His illustration of the Old Testament tabernacle will relay how the interior journey of the soul goes from sin to God's presence. The many sins of "self" will need to be brought to the cross; he states before the veil of true communion can take place. "Self is the opaque veil that hides the face of God from us. We must confess; forsake; repudiate the self life and then reckon it crucified ".As you discover how a defective faith can result in spiritual numbness; too will be the revelation of how obedience can give Inward revelation and acute perception; enabling us to experience God as one pure in heart. Programs and church attendance can still leave one inwardly bankrupt. Tozer exhorts us to get still to wait on God to hear him speak to our hearts. Accept His full Lordship and give forth complete submission. "We will acquire a new view point and mindset and a new power will begin to surprise us".This book; quite frankly; will revolutionize your life if you determine wholeheartedly to be a "doer"and not just a "hearer". These are simple; yet profound principles upon which any believer can follow if they choose to do so. I give this book a five star rating for the quality content and to the point principles. Allow it to change your life forever.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Golden NuggetBy T. BurkettThis is gold. The material requires multiple times through. There is the use of old English Bible (KJV) so the thou and thee are there. The material is deep and becomes richer the second time around. I bought this as a MP3 CD and listen in my car; very convenient.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. The best!!By PinkyILSo very encouraging thought provoking.
