Book Sale Finds

I LOVE book sale season. I visited a sale today at a local library and found the following:

* "Foxe's Christian Martyrs of the World" is an old book about various martyrs throughout history. This copy is a retelling in modern English. I plan to read a bit each day as part of my devotions and might read it aloud to the boys at some point.

* "End of the Spear" by Steve Saint - This is a book I recently read aloud to the boys. It's the story of the life of Steve Saint - the son of Nate Saint who was one of the 5 missionaries killed by Auca (Waodani) warriors in the '50s. It is an excellent book on many levels and provided a lot of great discussion about various topics between the boys and me. This copy is for a friend.

* "Thoughts for Buffets" is a delicious old cookbook from 1958 with lots of menus, recipes and ideas for various types of buffets. There is the Football Buffet Supper, the Hawaiian Barbecue Dinner, and the Far East Buffet, to name a few. I picked it up as it has some great old recipes that I want to use on future You, Me 'N Tea days.
