Setting Out on the Great Way brings together different perspectives on the origins and early history of Mahāyāna Buddhism and delves into selected aspects of its formative period. As the variety of the religion which conquered East Asia and also provided the matrix for the later development of Buddhist Tantra or Vajrayāna, Mahāyāna is regarded as one of the most significant forms of Buddhism, and its beginnings have long been the focus of intense scholarly attention and debate. The essays in this volume address the latest findings in the field, including contributions by younger researchers vigorously critiquing the reappraisal of the Mahāyāna carried out by scholars in the last decades of the 20th century and the different understanding of the movement which they produced. As the study of Buddhism as a whole reorients itself to embrace new methods and paradigms, while at the same time coming to terms with exciting new manuscript discoveries, our picture of the Mahāyāna continues to change. This volume presents the latest developments in this ongoing re-evaluation of one of Buddhism's most important historical expressions.

In this masterpiece of research, a splendid supplement to Ezra J. Warner's Generals in Gray, Bruce S. Allardice brings to light a neglected class of officers: the Confederacy's "other" generals -- men who attained their rank outside the usual avenue of appointment by President Jefferson Davis and who had been virtually forgotten as a consequence. Explaining that the process of becoming a general was fraught with politics, lobbying, intrigue, accident, mismanagement, and chance, Allardice identifies six main categories of legitimate claimants to the rank of Confederate General -- two more than historians have traditionally recognized. He presents a substantial biographical sketch of 137 generals not found in Warner's original and a short bibliography of each. For the vast majority, his is the first treatment ever published.

Two friends, torn apart by a scheming outsider. Paul and Christalyn are the best of friends from the outset. However, because they are friends so long, it’s difficult for Paul to tell her he’s developed feelings for her. Christalyn doesn’t see a romantic future for them and takes their close-knit relationship for granted. So, when Christalyn meets Harrison Blake on her college campus, she is captivated by his worldly charm. Against her better judgement as a Christian woman, she starts to date the dashing, debonair counselor, with full knowledge Harrison does not share her faith and could possibly lead her astray. Then, Paul and Christalyn’s journey begins through the eye of the storm. There seems no end to their torrential stint. Through tragedy, loss and distress, the couple emerges invincible, as they trust the God of heaven to navigate through the turbulence. It depicts the power of love, as stated in the biblical book of Song of Solomon 8:6, “Love is strong as death.” Through the fire and the rain, they learn a valuable lesson, which is, love’s reward is sweeter, after having partaken in the bitter hardships of life.
