In less than a century, Middlesbrough developed from a small farmstead into an industrial metropolis of 90,000 inhabitants. The genesis of this extraordinary transformation was the establishment of a new coal port on the south bank of the River Tees. Conceived and built by its industrial pioneers, Middlesbrough was a Victorian new town, planned on a strict grid system. Following the discovery of ironstone in the Cleveland Hills, this embryonic town developed into a world-leading centre of iron and steel production, earning itself the epithet 'Ironopolis'. A product of capitalist enterprise, Middlesbrough has a surprisingly rich architectural heritage. From the commercial palaces of the ironmasters' district to the superb Gothic town hall, Middlesbrough's buildings express the civic pride and entrepreneurial spirit of its industrial titans. The town boasts an incredible variety of churches, some designed by the brilliantly original architect Temple Moore, as well as the only surviving commercial building by Arts and Crafts pioneer Philip Webb. Striding over the Tees, Middlesbrough's Herculean bridges are monuments to the ingenuity and skill of its workers. This book is a celebration of Middlesbrough's architectural legacy. Exploring a selection of its finest buildings, it argues that despite the damage wrought by economic change, wartime bombing and destructive planning decisions, Middlesbrough retains a spectacular Victorian townscape that expresses a history of exceptional innovation and artistry. The text is illustrated with archival images and colour photographs taken especially for this volume. Michael Johnson is Senior Lecturer in Design History at Northumbria University. He is the author of The Sunderland Cottage: a history of Wearside's 'Little Palaces' and co-author of The Architecture of Sunderland, 1700-1914.

Just as Jesus Christ promised, a book that simplifies and clarifies the End Times prophecies, is finally here. A House Divided chronicles, in easy-to-understand terms, the ENTIRE End Times scenario, including SEVEN easy-to-remember End Events. After years of scouring numerous passages and gathering all the prophecies scattered throughout the Old and New Testaments of The Bible, the author has been able to piece together the prophecies to form a single, coherent picture of the End Times.During the process of gathering together the prophecies, the Author also discovered a profound prophecy concerning the emergence of a book in the End Times that outlines seven events. In The Revelation, Chapter 10, John witnesses a powerful Angel descending from Heaven who holds open a book while he utters seven thunders. Although John heard the thunders and was about to write them down, he was told to conceal them. The author of A House Divided feels that he has uncovered what those "seven thunders" are. By themselves, the seven End Events only scratch the surface of all the new prophetic interpretations that are presented in this book. There are at least twenty COMPLETELY NEW interpretations of prophecy, never before presented, that are detailed in the book. Many of the author''s interpretations are as bold in its assertions as The Revelation is mysterious. Jews also, will find this work especially intriguing. In rather blunt terms, the author exalts Jews while diminishing the importance of many religious, social and political organizations of our day, including organized Christian hierarchy and the Catholic Church. The book uses a minimum of scriptural quotes and explains, in everyday language and terms, what Christians must know to prepare themselves for a terrible Christian holocaust in the future. And the book has been formatted to appeal to the "less-educated" Christian. Formerly, most prophecy authors have ignored the larger portion of Christians who are not "schooled" in ancient text, translations and scholarly jargon. A House Divided dispenses with the scholarly chitchat that has inhibited understanding in past prophecy works. It omits diplomacy and gets straight to the point.Without a doubt, A House Divided is as profound in fresh and new End Times understanding, in this day, as The Revelation was in the day of John. Do not miss this opportunity to know, understand and REMEMBER what has eluded all of us to this day: the final revealing of the mystery of God and the WHOLE End Times Truth.

"A remarkably fine work of creative scholarship." C. Vann Woodward, New York Review of Books

From the monk who sets himself on fire in a crowded intersection of Saigon (the familiar corded tendons of his hands, become / a bracken of ashes, a carbon twine of burnt), to the salmon run in British Columbia (The salmon word / for home is glacierdust and once-tall trees unlimbed, / a taste, no matter where, they know), Johnson writes of topics varied and eclectic, unified by a focus on moments both declining and revenant.
