Lawrence Boeken
Broeder Lawrence, oorspronkelijk Nicolas Herman, was een Franse lekenbroeder die bekend stond om zijn diepe spiritualiteit en wijsheid. Ondanks zijn nederige positie binnen het klooster, verwierf hij de reputatie van een man die diepe innerlijke vrede ervoer. Mensen zochten zijn spirituele leiding, en het advies dat hij deelde via gesprekken en brieven vormde de basis van het invloedrijke boek "De Praktijk van de Tegenwoordigheid van God". Zijn filosofie was gericht op het handhaven van een constante bewustzijn van Gods aanwezigheid in alle dagelijkse activiteiten.






"Soap Suds Row explores the history of United States Army Laundresses. These women were sanctioned and paid by the United States Army to wash the clothes of the soldiers from 1802-1876. The laundresses received a set wage and also received rations. Their work was hard and conditions were sometimes poor. Often these laundresses were married to enlisted men and they traveled with their various military companies. Soap Suds Row provides historic accounts of laundresses at several forts, both on the Western Frontier and during the Civil War and also describes the job, the culture, and the working conditions."--Provided by publisher.
