Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The author was a newspaper editor in his fifties when he learnt how to dowse, and it transformed his life. He soon tried some of the many ways that the ancient art can be used - from finding lost objects to selecting the freshest fruit and vegetables at the supermarket and deciding where to go on holiday. Then he became fascinated by energy leys, part of the mysterious world-wide grid of Earth energies, and tracked dragon lines at famous places such as Glastonbury and St Michael's Mount. As his skill with a pendulum improved he went on ghost hunts and had some eye-opening experiences. The book goes on to explain how dowsing can give access to a vast sea of knowledge and open doors into alternative spirituality and the paranormal.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. WHAT was it like to be a young Jehovah's Witness living in Britain in the 1960s? Members of the faith aged in their teens and twenties were constantly warned by their leaders that the world was shortly to be destroyed in the Battle of Armageddon. They were told that if they wished to be saved and live forever on a paradise earth they would need to conform to a strict code of conduct. That meant preaching from door-to-door to warn of the coming destruction, avoiding sex outside marriage, not undertaking higher education, not celebrating Christmas nor birthdays, and only mixing socially with people who were Jehovah's Witnesses. The book follows the life of a fictional young man named Luke Fairweather from the age of 18 to 30. For several months he is given a thorough indoctrination in the beliefs of the Witnesses. He accepts the claim that Armageddon is only a short time away and devotes his life to preaching. But as the years go by and the end of the world seems as far away as ever, he is dismayed at some examples of double standards in his congregation. He also begins to have doubts about the Witnesses' teachings, And he suffers a crisis of faith. This item is printed on demand.
