Book Description
Get ready for one of America’s great untold stories: the true saga of the Louvin Brothers, a mid-century Southern gothic Cain and Abel and one of the greatest country duos of all time. The Los Angeles Times called them “the most influential harmony team in the history of country music,” but Emmylou Harris may have hit closer to the heart of the matter, saying “there was something scary and washed in the blood about the sound of the Louvin Brothers.” For readers of Johnny Cash’s irresistible autobiography and Merle Haggard’s My House of Memories, no country music library will be complete without this raw and powerful story of the duo that everyone from Dolly Parton to Gram Parsons described as their favorites: the Louvin Brothers.

The Real Satan
Author: James Kallas
Publisher: Fortress Press
ISBN: 9781451410464
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 116
Book Description
James Kallas presents the real Satan by examining who Satan is in both Old and New Testaments. Many will want to scoff at the idea that Satan exists at all, precisely because their image of Satan is relegated to the ways in which he is depicted, particularly in the New Testament. There, Satan's presence caused people to be blind, deaf, lame, as well as to foam at the mouth, scream out obscenities, and roll in the fire. Others will take Satan's power too seriously by making too much of his power, as if Satan is even more powerful than Jesus Christ. James Kallas presents a balanced study of the ways in which Satan is manifest in such contemporary places and activities as drug and alcohol abuse, atheism, and in satanic worship. The Real Satan uniquely and seriously addresses Satan's presence and power, yet with even more seriousness this book points to the assurance that Jesus Christ is victorious over Satan and all evil powers.

Satanism: A Social History
Author: Massimo Introvigne
Publisher: BRILL
ISBN: 9004244964
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 665
Book Description
A 17th-century French haberdasher invented the Black Mass. An 18th-century English Cabinet Minister administered the Eucharist to a baboon. High-ranking Catholic authorities in the 19th century believed that Satan appeared in Masonic lodges in the shape of a crocodile and played the piano there. A well-known scientist from the 20th century established a cult of the Antichrist and exploded in a laboratory experiment. Three Italian girls in 2000 sacrificed a nun to the Devil. A Black Metal band honored Satan in Krakow, Poland, in 2004 by exhibiting on stage 120 decapitated sheep heads. Some of these stories, as absurd as they might sound, were real. Others, which might appear to be equally well reported, are false. But even false stories have generated real societal reactions. For the first time, Massimo Introvigne proposes a general social history of Satanism and anti-Satanism, from the French Court of Louis XIV to the Satanic scares of the late 20th century, satanic themes in Black Metal music, the Church of Satan, and beyond.
