Book Description

Excerpt from The Greater Glory, Vol. 1 of 2: A Story of High Life This is a true story. It is what they call a story of high life. It is also a story of the life which is higher still. There be climbings which ascend to depths of in famy; there be also God is merciful - most infamous fallings into heaven. The wise men, who explain this world, have taught us to consider it a round one; doubtless they have wisely measured it. Then, as 't is round, should wisdom twist it topsy-turvy no one would be a whit the wiser, not even the wise men. And that, perhaps, is why - sometimes - to fools - our earthly high and low seem but a mighty matter of tweedledum and tweedledee.
