Hardback. Etat : Good. The Swarm of Heaven (1999) by Derek Wilson Constable ISBN: 9780094784703 Condition: Good (and by ?Good? we mean the kind of solid, dependable copy that has seen a shelf or two, maybe heard a muffled sneeze, but is still holding itself together with quiet dignity, as is the tradition at Crappy Old Books). Derek Wilson, historian, biographer, and master of weaving big ideas into page-turning narratives, brings us The Swarm of Heaven , a title that sounds less like a history book and more like something you?d mutter in awe while watching a biblical plague. But don?t worry?this isn?t about frogs falling from the sky. It?s about ideas, upheavals, and that messy patch of history when Europe was trying to figure out how to reconcile faith, reason, and the fact that everyone was arguing about both. Wilson takes us through an intellectual and spiritual battleground where prophets, philosophers, reformers, and power-hungry leaders all tried to claim the moral high ground (sometimes while standing in the mud). It?s a story of belief and doubt, revelation and repression, and humanity?s relentless attempt to make sense of the cosmos without tripping over its own contradictions. Think of it as: Theology meets politics in a wrestling ring. History with a touch of apocalyptic flair. A reminder that, long before the internet, people were already very good at shouting their opinions and refusing to budge. Perfect for: Readers who like their history dramatic, stormy, and occasionally a little cosmic. Collectors who love a Good (capital G) copy that shows it?s been around the block. Anyone curious about how heaven?s ?swarm? buzzed noisily through the human imagination long before Derek Wilson gave it this catchy title. At Crappy Old Books, we?re proud to offer this volume in ?Good? condition. Not pristine, not As New, but Good?the kind of copy that feels lived-in, like a friendly witness to its own era. It may not have descended from heaven in a swarm, but it certainly landed here, waiting for you. N° de réf. du vendeur 4495
