The Big Sky
First published more than fifty years ago, The Big Sky is the first of A. B. Guthrie,
Jr.'s epic adventure novels of America's vast frontier. The Big Sky introduces the young Dick Summers and the unforgettable hero Boone Caudill. Under Summers's tutelage, Caudill becomes a powerful White Savage, an untamed life force that only the beautiful daughter of a Blackfoot chief would dare to love. The forerunner to western writers such as Cormac McCarthy and Larry McMurtry, A. B. Guthrie was the first to give us an unforgettable portrait of a spacious land and a unique way of life and reveal why the phrase the big sky
has become a part of our heritage.

Christianity is a worldwide phenomenon, with millions of people across the globe practicing the word of God, and paying fastidious attention to the pages of the Bible. It wasn't always that way, however, as journalist Peter Jennings illustrates in this fascinating exploration of early Christian beliefs. The teachings of Christianity can be traced back to Jesus and Paul, who set down some of the fundamental beliefs in their brief tenure on the planet. Focusing largely on Paul, Jennings shows how he set the religion apart from Judaism, the possible negative effects he had, and how he interacted with Jesus and his family. It all adds up to a fascinating piece of history that is both revealing and highly educational.DVD Features:Region (unknown)Keep CaseFull Frame - 1.33Audio: Dolby Digital StereoAdditional Release Material: Biographies
