Hans Egede’s remarkable 1770-1778 journals were first published in 1818 when the British launched their great nineteenth-century Arctic explorations and such information was in enormous demand. The coast of eastern Greenland had been virtually inaccessible to Europeans for four centuries. Egede’s fascinating writings relate his determined quest for remnants of old settlements; keen observations of the Greenlandic Inuit on subjects as varied as polygamy; witchcraft; health; education; how the Inuit’s contact with outsiders affected this indigenous people; and previously little-known information about the geography of the island’s eastern territories. After years of being out-of-print; Egede’s colorful accounts are once again made available to English-speaking readers in this wonderful and timely new series; launched just as the eyes of the world are; not a moment too soon; drawn northward.

The GREATEST BOOK ever written on Bible Prophecy !!By John WestAs a student and teacher of Bible Prophecy for over 35 years I have to say Walid Shoebat has produced one of the greatest books ever written on end times prophecy.This book is the greatest teaching resources for any serious Bible teacher or Bible student. It is an absolute must read !!Thank you Walid Shoebat for this tremendous work.9 of 9 people found the following review helpful. Blows the doors off the "Left Behind" seriesBy rwskiChristians are looking in the wrong direction and are missing the Truth about the antichrist and end-times prophecy!Just as God's people missed Christ in His first coming because of misunderstandings and misinterpretations of the Scriptures; so also is the Church missing the "signs of the times" today. And just as they were stubbornly resistive to change their thinking then; even so today many will likely reject this excellent and extensive expose of genuine Biblical prophetic events as they are already being unveiled.This book is THE best that I've read about Islam and the end times. A few others are looking in the right direction; but Shoebat shows himself an expert researcher regarding the many details he uncovers. He sees Scripture from a Middle Eastern perspective and ties endless loose ends together unlike anything else.The book is excellent; and an absolute MUST READ. Those who bypass this one will remain clueless as to the detailed prophetic fulfillments that are right now taking place. It will help people to realize just how near America is to losing it all because of the Church's being so naieve and ignorant of the prophetic Scriptures.3 of 3 people found the following review helpful.
