Eve; Sarah; Rachel; Delilah; Ruth-their names live on; but their ancient stories have long been obscured. In this sumptuously illustrated retelling of the lives of 18 women in the Hebrew Bible; we are reunited with Deborah; the warrior prophetess; Tamar; the sacred prostitute; Esther; the harem girl turned savior queen; and many other remarkable female figures. Author Miki Raver pairs each of these vibrant and daring tales with an eloquent meditation on their meaning for modern women. Beautiful reproductions of classic biblical art from such masters as Rubens; Blake; Brueghel; Raphael; Rembrandt; and Chagall illustrate these powerful women's dramatic stories. Including a foreword by Lynn Gottlieb; this rich marriage of art; literature; and spirituality offers substantive and entertaining reading; as well as a fresh entry into traditional faith. The perfect Chanukah or Bat Mitzvah present; Listen to Her Voice is a provocative book to treasure and share.

Really fun to read book.By Igloo98A little different South Pole expedition. Norman Vaughan has a grand sense of and desire for adventure. I met this guy one time in Alaska. He ran the Iditarod a few times in recent years too. It is why he went to the South Pole with Byrd; to care for the dogs. The relationships among the people on this adventure make this story interesting as well as the challenges the environment posed. Fun to read.
