The publishing house of John Murray was founded in Fleet Street in 1768 and remained a family firm over seven generations. Published to coincide with this remarkable achievement and in the anniversary year, Dear Mr Murray is a collection of some of the best letters from the hundreds of thousands held in the John Murray Archive. They reveal not only the story of some of the most interesting and influential books in history but also the remarkable friendships - as well as occasional animosities - between author and publisher, as well as readers, editors, printers and illustrators.Despite the incredible number of letters that were retained by the Murray family, some failed to arrive, others were delayed and some barely survived, but longevity added to the reputation and fame of John Murray and a correspondent in Canada who addressed his letter merely to John Murray, The World-wide famous Book Publishing House, London, England as early as 1932 could be confident that his letter would arrive.Intended to entertain and inspire, and spanning more than two hundred years, Dear Mr Murray is full of literary history and curiosities: from Charles Darwin s response to the negative reviews of On the Origin of Species to Adrian Conan Doyle challenging Harold Nicolson to a duel for insulting his father in the press; from David Livingstone s displeasure at the proposed drawing of a lion to represent his near-death encounter in Missionary Travels to William Makepeace Thackeray apologising for his drunken behaviour; from Byron berating John Murray for being fooled by his girlfriend s forgery of his signature to the poet James Hogg so desperate for money that he claims he won t be able to afford a Christmas goose; and from Jane Austen expressing concern about printing delays to Patrick Leigh Fermor beseeching Jock Murray not to visit him until he d completed A Time of Gifts. Complemented by illustrations and reproductions of letters and envelopes, this is the perfect gift for book lovers everywhere.

From the Sunday Times No. 1 Bestselling AuthorIn On Democracies and Death Cults, bestselling author Douglas Murray argues how no less than the future of the Western World is at stake in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Drawing from intensive on-the-ground reporting in Israel, Gaza and Lebanon, Murray presents a compelling case that places the latest violence in its proper historical context. He takes readers on a harrowing journey through the aftermath of the 7th October massacre, piecing together the exclusive accounts from victims, survivors and even the terrorists responsible for the atrocities. On Democracies and Death Cults illustrates how Israel s commitment to fundamental Western values - capitalism, individual rights, democracy, and reason - has made it a beacon of progress in a region dominated by authoritarianism and extremism.Murray contrasts Israel s principles with the ideology of Hamas, which openly proclaims its love of death over life. If left unchecked, Murray argues, this misplaced Western sympathy could embolden forces that seek to undermine democratic values and perpetuate a culture of violence. Deeply reasoned, clear-eyed and grounded in fact, On Democracies and Death Cults is a gripping and essential read for all who seek to understand the complexities of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and its implications for the future of democracy - and for the world itself.

LORD, TEACH US TO PRAY! LUKE 11:1 Jesus never taught His disciples how to preach, only how to pray. He did not speak much of what was needed to preach well but spoke much of praying well. To know how to speak to God is more important than knowing how to speak to man. Not power with men, but power with God is the first thing. Jesus loves to teach us how to pray.What do you think, my beloved fellow disciples? Would it not be just what we needed, to ask the Master to give us a month-long course of special lessons on the art of prayer? As we meditate on the words He spoke on earth, let us yield to his teaching, in the fullest confidence that, with such a teacher, we shall make progress. Let us take time not only to meditate but to pray. To busy ourselves at the foot of the throne, and be trained in the work of intercession. -Andrew Murray With Christ in the School of Prayer offers a structured series of 31 short, concise, practical, and powerful lessons on prayer to fill the listener s heart with a hunger for God s presence. While holding firmly to Andrew Murray s classic teaching and theology and retaining the elegance of his writing style, this edition has been updated to make Murray s writing more accessible to modern readers.It includes the following updates:A Study Guide to Ensure a Deeper Study of Andrew Murray s Original Message.Unabridged and Carefully Updated Text in Modern English.Updated Organization and Headings.An Active Table of Contents.Large Print Text.Our earnest prayer is that you find this updated edition much easier to understand and that God would bless you with more desire to seek His face in His school of prayer.

Edgar Poe was born the son of itinerant actors on January 19th, 1809 in Boston, Massachusets. Abandoned by his father and the later death of his mother, he was taken into the foster care of John Allan, a Virginia tobacco farmer. Now styled as Edgar Allan Poe, he distinguished himself at the University of Virginia but was equally adept at collecting debts from his assiduous gambling.His stepfather’s disapproval shattered their fragile relationship and Poe left home to seek his fortune. In 1836 he married his cousin Virginia but despite his prolific activities – journalism, poetry, lecturing, short stories, publishing, criticism and experimentation with fictional genres, including the detective novel which he virtually invented with the publication of The Murders in the Rue Morgue (1841) – he received scant recognition for his efforts until the publication of The Raven in 1845. The poem’s instant popularity gave him a new visibility in literary circles, but his personal situation remained desperate: poverty, illness, drink, and the physical decline and ultimate death of Virginia in 1847 led to his untimely and premature decline.In 1849 he was found sick, injured and semi-conscious in a Baltimore tavern. Taken to hospital, he lingered on for four days, but never recovered and on October 7th Edgar Allan Poe died at the age of 40. He was one of the most original writers in the history of American letters – a genius who, thanks to his dire reputation, was tragically misunderstood during his lifetime.It was not until Baudelaire enthusiastically translated his work that he found a wider audience in Europe, and became not only an enormous influence on modern French literature but also on the acclaimed work of writers such as Dostoevsky, Conan Doyle and Jules Verne. Our Library Collection hardback series has been completely redesigned, for launch in November 2024.

Vznikla nová utopická ideologie společenské spravedlnosti, jež nesmiřitelně prosazuje radikální přestavbu společnosti na základě domnělých práv rasových a sexuálních menšin (i většinových žen). Tato ideologie proniká do hlavního proudu politiky, ovládla veřejný diskurz a stala se novou státní legitimitou. Je však zmatená a absurdní, a tak vede doslova k masovému šílenství. Jak píše Murray: Vypjaté projevy znechucení na veřejnosti i v soukromí se opakují stále častěji, lidé se chovají jako v horečce, reagují stádně, anebo jako by si potřebovali nepřetržitě a vulgárně ulevovat. Každodenní zprávy nám předkládají důsledky takového chování, ale příčiny nám unikají. Na straně progresivistů vystupují globální americké firmy, zejména Google, Amazon, Twitter a Facebook, jež získaly moc určovat lidem, co mají znát, o čem přemýšlet a mluvit”. Autor popisuje paradoxy a protimluvy tohoto šílenství, které se snaží potlačit normální zdravý rozum (např. výrokem, že ženy a muži jsou stejní). Murray rozebírá matoucí ideologii a její novořeč: komunita LBGTQ , bělošské privilegium , toxické mužství nebo transfobie a nabízí možnost, jak se nenechat ovládnout takzvanou politickou korektností”, jež je naprosto scestná. Autor ukazuje, že pro záchranu západní civilizace rozumu a svobody je životně důležité, abychom uměli rozlišit, co je na emancipaci žen, homosexuálů a rasových menšin správné - a kdy už jednoznačně jsme na cestě k šílenství.

Už delší dobu to vypadá, že se na Západě hroutí snášenlivá společnost humánních civilizačních zásad, které jí dosud zajišťovaly soudržnost a rozvoj. Média podléhají cenzuře politické ideologie sociální spravedlnosti” a univerzity indoktrinují mládež revoluční vizí nové společnosti. Všechno, co jsme pokládali za rozumné a dané”, píše Murray, se nyní nachází pod palbou nenávistné kritiky”. Máme-li i tentokrát zvítězit nad fašismem a komunismem, musíme demaskovat vnitřního nepřítele. Není to snadné, pseudoprogresivistické hnutí uvědomělých (woke)” bojůvek používá proměnlivý jazyk utopické absolutní rovnosti rasových a sexuálních menšin” a svou novořečí dokáže posluchače často zmást. V útoku na západní civilizaci zneužívá americký komplex z otrokářství ( Na černošských životech záleží!”) a obviněním z rasismu útočí na liberální politickou tradici, západní filosofii, literaturu, umění a dokonce i exaktní vědy jako na pozůstatky rasistické imperialistické politiky bílých mrtvých mužů”, kterou je nutno od základu vyvrátit a vybudovat novou, spravedlivou, multikulturní a beztřídní společnost. Murray dramaticky líčí, jak ideologie anti-rasismu pronikla do myšlení západní elity, jak ovlivňuje chod škol a institucí, pracovní zákony i veřejnou debatu. Padají sochy zakladatelů americké svobody a hrdinů občanské války. Absurdní obvinění bílé rasy z vrozeného nevyléčitelného rasismu ohrožuje legitimitu a soudržnost multietnického národa. Murray volá do boje: nedejme se zastrašit a pádně odpovězme na pomlouvání civilizace, jež dala světu katedrály a univerzity, úžasné umění, vědu, techniku a také lékařství a vyprostila z bídy dvě miliardy lidí! Pouze na Západě byla umožněna politická a individuální svoboda. V zájmu jejího udržení je třeba se vzepřít jejím totalitním likvidátorům - je třeba je porazit.

In The War on the West, international bestselling author Douglas Murray asks: if the history of humankind is one of slavery, conquest, prejudice, genocide and exploitation, why are only Western nations taking the blame for it?It s become perfectly acceptable to celebrate the contributions of non-Western cultures, but discussing their flaws and crimes is called hate speech. What s more it has become acceptable to discuss the flaws and crimes of Western culture, but celebrating their contributions is also called hate speech. Some of this is a much-needed reckoning; however, some is part of a larger international attack on reason, democracy, science, progress and the citizens of the West by dishonest scholars, hatemongers, hostile nations and human-rights abusers hoping to distract from their ongoing villainy.In The War on the West, Douglas Murray shows the ways in which many well-meaning people have been lured into polarisation by lies, and shows how far the world s most crucial political debates have been hijacked across Europe and America. Propelled by an incisive deconstruction of inconsistent arguments and hypocritical activism, The War on the West is an essential and urgent polemic that cements Murray s status as one of the world s foremost political writers.

One of the greatest adventure stories in years. â “ Chris Patten The drama, excitement and colour of a good guts-and-glory thriller. â “ Dr. Henry Kissinger The French Foreign Legion â “ mysterious, romantic, deadly â “ is filled with men of dubious character, and hardly the place for a proper Englishman just nineteen years of age. Yet in 1960, Simon Murray traveled alone to Paris, Marseilles, and on to Algeria to fulfill the toughest contract of his life: a five-year stint in the Legion. Along the way, he kept a diary.Legionnaire is a compelling, firsthand account of Murray s experience with this legendary band of soldiers. Subjected to brutal sergeants, merciless training methods and barbaric punishments â “ all in the hostile, sun-baked North African desert â “ Murray and his fellow men were pushed to breaking point, and beyond.Sixty years on, it remains a remarkable account of one of the most notorious military groups, a tale of true adventure and one man s determination never to surrender.

Douglas Murray brilantně líčí příběh masové imigrace do Evropy - její počátky v poválečném nedostatku pracovní síly, její zintenzivnění při slučování rodin a konečně humanitární ospravedlňování otevřených hranic. Od druhé světové války až po současnost vznikají a rostou ohromné nepřizpůsobivé přistěhovalecké kolonie, navzdory tomu by ale příchod milionů nemusel být hlasem polnice posledního soudu, kdyby Evropa neztratila víru ve svou civilizaci, tradici a legitimní právo na vlastní existenci . Vyčerpaný a historickou vinou kolonialismu a rasismu posedlý Západ není schopen hájit občanské svobody a práva proti nábožensky sebejisté kultuře islámu, jež nezná odluku církve a státu. Murray vykresluje dramaticky narůstající spor většinové společnosti s intelektuální elitou, která hodlá evropský lid vyměnit. Důkladně analyzuje její akademické šibolety, vytáčky a lži i její ideál morálně nadřazeného univerzálního lidství bez kulturního rozlišení, utopickou vizi nesoudržné, multietnické společnosti pouhých lidských práv. Jak prorocky napsal G. K. Chesterton, proti ideologii bezbřehého splynutí všech se všemi se jednou instinktivně vzbouří miliony a rozpoutá se střet mezi davem a posedlou internacionální třídou. Ať už nadcházející konflikt dopadne jakkoli, podle Murrayho to pak nebude Evropa, jakou jsme dosud znali.

Nová brilantná a provokatívna kniha jedného z najvýznamnejších svetových politických spisovateľov. V knihe Vojna proti Západu sa autor medzinárodných bestsellerov Douglas Murray pýta: ak sú dejiny ľudstva dejinami otroctva, dobývania, predsudkov, genocídy a vykorisťovania, prečo za to nesú vinu len západné národy? Čína má dnes koncentračné tábory. Prečo ľudia zo Západu tvrdia, že naše hriechy sú jedinečné? Teraz je v móde oslavovať nezápadné kultúry a, naopak, znevažovať všetko západné. Niečo z toho predstavuje potrebné zúčtovanie, avšak väčšina osudovo podkopáva základ toho, čo vytvorilo najväčšiu a najhumánnejšiu civilizáciu na svete. Douglas Murray v knihe Vojna proti Západu ukazuje, koľko ľudí s dobrými úmyslami sa nechalo oklamať pokryteckou a nedôslednou protizápadnou rétorikou. Napokon, ak musíme zavrhnúť myšlienky Kanta, Huma a Milla pre ich názory na rasu, nemali by sme zavrhnúť aj Marxa, ktorého dielo je prešpikované rasistickými urážkami a antisemitizmom? V Amerike ešte treba uhasiť ohniská rasizmu, ale čo s besniacim rasistickým peklom na Blízkom východe a v Ázii? Z tohto intelektuálneho podvodu neprofitujú len nečestní vedci, ale aj nepriateľské národy a porušovatelia ľudských práv, ktorí dúfajú, že tak odvrátia pozornosť od svojich vlastných súčasných zločinov. Diktátori s radosťou naskočia na vlnu „Amerika je rasistická krajina“ a ako PR imitujú jazyk antirasistických a „prospravodlivých“ hnutí, zatiaľ čo medzitým vyvražďujú vlastný ľud a uskutočňujú svoje autoritárske ťaženia.. Ak má Západ prežiť, treba ho brániť. Vojna proti Západu nie je len prenikavým rozborom hlúpych protizápadných argumentov, ale aj novou a prísnou apologetikou civilizácie ako takej.

SUNDAY TIMES NUMBER ONE BESTSELLER⠘The most important book of the year⠙ Daily MailThe brilliant and provocative new book from one of the world⠙s foremost political writers⠘The anti-Western revisionists have been out in force in recent years. It is high time that we revise them in turn⠦⠙In The War on the West, international bestselling author Douglas Murray asks: if the history of humankind is one of slavery, conquest, prejudice, genocide and exploitation, why are only Western nations taking the blame for it? It⠙s become perfectly acceptable to celebrate the contributions of non-Western cultures, but discussing their flaws and crimes is called hate speech. What⠙s more it has become acceptable to discuss the flaws and crimes of Western culture, but celebrating their contributions is also called hate speech. Some of this is a much-needed reckoning; however, some is part of a larger international attack on reason, democracy, science, progress and the citizens of the West by dishonest scholars, hatemongers, hostile nations and human-rights abusers hoping to distract from their ongoing villainy.In The War on the West, Douglas Murray shows the ways in which many well-meaning people have been lured into polarisation by lies, and shows how far the world⠙s most crucial political debates have been hijacked across Europe and America. Propelled by an incisive deconstruction of inconsistent arguments and hypocritical activism, The War on the West is an essential and urgent polemic that cements Murray⠙s status as one of the world⠙s foremost political writers.

Helen Murray Taylor was finding her feet as a young doctor and trying to maintain some semblance of a life in the shadow of a punishing schedule when she witnessed a horrific road traffic accident. The impact of this fatal collision caught Helen off guard and had terrible repercussions. Both her career and her mental health took a battering. After a succession of other distressing events left Helen emotionally shattered and seriously depressed, she was admitted to a psychiatric ward and sectioned under the Mental Health Act. At her lowest, she almost succeeded in taking her own life. love lay down beside me and we wept sprang from these difficult times, from Helen’s months on the ward and the psychological upheaval of being restrained against her will, and from the challenge of being a doctor turned patient, but also from the moments of pure comedy and unexpected comradeship that she encountered there. This is a profoundly moving and masterful account of one woman s physical and psychological breakdown, it s a tribute to the love that supported her through it, and it s an offering to the reader who might find comfort or understanding in this story.

V temných časech, kdy se euroatlantická civilizace ocitá na křižovatce, obrací Douglas Murray pozornost k jednomu z nejsložitějších konfliktů současnosti: k válce mezi Izraelem a Hamásem. Nejde o reportáž z bojiště, spíš o hluboký esej o tom, co odděluje život od smrti, svobodu od otroctví a lidskost od barbarství. Ráno 7. října 2023 vtrhl smrtící kult Hamásu do izraelských vesnic. Rituál ideologie, jež uctívá smrt jako vrchol existence, přinesl masové vraždy, znásilňování, mučení, únosy. Murray čerpá z osobních svědectví přeživších, ale také sleduje cestu od kořenů islamistického extremismu až po manipulaci, jež dělá vražedné stroje dokonce i z dětí. Čím je kniha tak atraktivní? Svou univerzálností. Oslovuje nás všechny, kdo sledujeme, jak Západ sabotuje sám sebe v závodech slepé „tolerance“ vůči extremismu. Ukazuje, že protesty proti Izraeli často maskují hlubší nenávist k západním hodnotám, odpovídá na otázky, proč média zkreslují realitu a proč demokracie musí být nejen tolerantní, ale i nekompromisní: vůči těm, kdo uctívají smrt.

In 1996 Trainspotting was the biggest thing in British culture. Brilliantly and aggressively marketed, it crossed into the mainstream despite being a black comedy set against the backdrop of heroin addiction in Edinburgh. Produced by Andrew Macdonald, scripted by John Hodge and directed by Danny Boyle, the team behind Shallow Grave (1994), Trainspotting was an adaptation of Irvine Welshâ ™s barbed novel of the same title. The film is crucial for understanding British culture in the context of devolution and the rise of â ˜Cool Britanniaâ ™. Murray Smith unpicks the processes that led to Trainspottingâ ™s enormous success. He isolates various factors â “ the filmâ ™s eclectic soundtrack, its depiction of Scottish identity, its attitude to deprivation, drugs and violence, its traffic with American cultural forms, its synthesis of realist and fantastic elements, and its complicated relationship to â ˜heritageâ ™ â “ that make Trainspotting such a vivid document of its time. Although it heralded a false dawn for British film-making,Trainspotting is, Smith concludes, both authentically vernacular and yet transnational in its influences and ambitions.In his afterword to this new edition, Murray Smith reflects on the original film 25 years after its release, and its 2017 sequel T2: Trainspotting also directed by Boyle. Smith also considers Danny Boyle s subsequent directorial career, with highlights including Slumdog Millionaire (2008) and the 2012 London Olympics opening ceremony.
