Fatal Rivalry: Part Three of The Last Great Saxon Earls
Description
<p>In 1066, the rivalry between two brothers brought England to its knees. When Duke William of Normandy landed at Pevensey on September 28, 1066, no one was there to resist him. King Harold Godwineson was in the north, fighting his brother Tostig and a fierce Viking invasion. How could this have happened? Why would Tostig turn traitor to wreak revenge on his brother?<br />The Sons of Godwine were not always enemies. It took a massive Northumbrian uprising to tear them apart, making Tostig an exile and Harold his sworn enemy. And when 1066 came to an end, all the Godwinesons were dead except one: Wulfnoth, hostage in Normandy. For two generations, Godwine and his sons were a mighty force, but their power faded away as the Anglo-Saxon era came to a close.</p>
Story Behind The Book
The DNA molecule is the secret behind creation. This complex molecule holds more information in it than a book full of library books. Scientists have studied and mapped about 20% of the DNA in a living cell which is the genome. There is still 80% of the cell DNA that no one knows anything about. What secrets does this DNA hold? What is its function? Could this be what God designed to unfold in each generation for the purpose of creating new species and is it timed to unfold at a predetermined interval? Did God put each of us in that timing sequence? Did each of us come along at a predetermined instant?
Reviews
<p>Craig Anderson wrote on Barnes and Noble, "David's Gift is a book that will help Christians clarify the subjects of intelligent design as it pertains to evolutionary scientific principles.<br />
Our educational system is teaching our children evolutionary theory while our churches teach creationism. Children and adults are being<br />
pulled in opposite directions in a see-saw battle on what to believe. David's Gift may help answer many of the perplexing questions that<br />
religion has not been able to answer regarding these two conflicting and offsetting points of view. I thought David's Gift did an excellent<br />
job of melding the two opposing sides of creation and evolution while giving the reader some compelling and viable options to consider.<br />
The fictional story line in David's Gift has a superbly knowledgeable way of allowing the believer to hold onto their religious beliefs while<br />
still adhering to public school teachings of Darwin's concepts of evolution. Once I started reading this book I found it difficult to put down.<br />
I think this book should be on everyone's must read list. The author did a tremendous amount of researching for this book which makes<br />
it such a compelling piece of literature to read."</p>
