Originally published in 1851, partly with the aim of correcting certain mistakes in painter George Jones's 1849 tribute (also reissued in this series), this work commemorates Norton-born sculptor Sir Francis Chantrey (1781-1841), whose illustrious career began in nearby Sheffield. His most celebrated works include The Sleeping Children in Lichfield Cathedral, his statue of James Watt, and his busts of Sir Walter Scott and John Horne Tooke. An enthusiast for his country's art, Chantrey left a generous bequest to the Royal Academy which allowed for the purchase of numerous works of British art, now held by the Tate. The author John Holland (1794-1872), himself a Sheffield man, wrote with a passion for local history and topography. Here, his delight in the 'absolutely or comparatively trivial' lends a curious local slant to his delineation of the sculptor's background, entry into the profession, later working life and burial back in Norton.

Wohin geht ein geliebter Mensch, wenn er von uns gegangen ist? Wie sieht es aus, das Leben nach dem Tod? John Holland, praktizierendes Medium und spiritueller Lehrer, kennt die Antwort auf diese Fragen und zeichnet in seinem neuen Buch ein klares und deutliches Bild der jenseitigen Welt. Dank seiner besonderen Fähigkeiten ist es ihm möglich, mit dem Reich der Verstorbenen in Kontakt zu treten und ihre Botschaften zu empfangen. Als Mittler zwischen den Welten möchte er Hinterbliebenen dabei helfen, ihre eigenen spirituellen Fähigkeiten zu entfalten, Trost und Inspiration geben und mit seinem Wissen die Trauer der Lebenden lindern. Ein faszinierender Blick auf eine Welt, in der der Tod uns nicht ängstigt, wir niemals alleine sind und Seelen ewig leben.Sprachen: Englisch, Deutsch

'Sounds of Wonder' invites the reader to stay a while at Drumrowan Wildlife Park in the magnificent Scottish Highlands. Under the dynamic leadership of Lord and Lady Cameron, the staff at Drumrowan work together as a good team but there always seems to be a drama ready to unfold. Set near a sleepy village, 'Sounds of Wonder' is an uplifting tale of epic adventure, misadventure, deeds of derring-do, genuine care for the welfare of others, passion for wildlife and for people, and romance. It builds to a moving climax which touches on the border between fantasy and possibility. *** "Burns had swollen to three times their normal girth. Sparkling foam plummeted downward, as bright as white, wild stallions, raging wild stallions carried on turbulent currents; dark, peaty, ochreous."
