Agatha Christie's life is as much of a mystery as her spectacular novels. But now, with unique access to previously unpublished papers, Laura Thompson brings us a perceptive and stylish biography of Agatha Christie as a phenomenon, a writer and a woman.

A survey of the world of the wealthy heiress - glittering and gleaming, flawed and fascinating - from the seventeenth to the twenty-first centuries.

A much-praised biography of the most brilliant of the Mitford sisters, who dazzled and scandalized interwar high society with their wit and sometimes controversial lifestyles.

Award-winning biographer Laura Thompson pays homage to the English pub through the remarkable story of her grandmother, the first woman in England to be given a publican s license in her own name

The case of Edith Thompson and her lover Frederick Bywaters, both hanged for murder in 1923.

Outside the gate represents a new realm of possibilities, and thus a ministry there requires a very different set of business tactics to develop and administrate. People doing ongoing ministry outside of an organizational structure need a separate business structure. This is an example where no one is out there showing you what to do and how you need to operate as a business structure. This book has been written to provide practical, detailed steps to follow to set up a business structure for your ministry.

This book is rather intriguing because it addresses a variety of hot topics including the anointing, jealousy, heart conditions, motivations and lots of other interesting subjects. When ministering, it's important to think past the opportunity and look towards the intended purpose of your gift and God's working power.

As you read of testimony and experiences both seen and felt, the intention is to introduce varying and sometimes narrow viewpoints, which will become cause in the matter of readers to take an introspective look at ministry within their own lives.
