Welcome

I have found much joy and enlightenment using Google's Book Search feature over the past year and I wish to share the joy of some of the treasures I have found and continue to find.

There are so many pieces of forgotten literature that deserve to be explored.

Historical texts that are contemporary to the times that they were written about that give you a completely different perspective on a time in history than you can get from modern history books that are simply regurgitating the past.

There is wisdom to be found in ancient religious texts. You can find writings from men and women who had the same scriptures available to them as we have to day but approached them from a world view that was shaped by the time period they lived in and so their approach to the scriptures was completely different than any of our contemporaries.

One cannot hope to have even a fraction of these resources available to them at their local library. Google has opened the doors to a vast array of knowledge that was previously only available to the scholarly elite and was in danger of being lost to time forever.
