In 1907, the fifteen-year-old French-Canadian Ernest Dufault left his home in Quebec for Montana, where he was promptly arrested as a cattle thief. As a prisoner of the state of Nevada, he passed himself off as an American cowboy named Will James. Over the next few decades, Dufault, a.k.a. James, would flourish as a cowboy and horsebreaker and go on to become an artist, a soldier, a Hollywood stuntman, and a bestselling author of award-winning westerns — and his own false memoir. The Quebecer was so successful a pretender that he was later inducted into the Hall of Great Westerners, and his estranged wife, Alice Conradt, would only learn his true identity when, at the age of fifty, Will James died and left his estate to a man she had never heard of: one Ernest Dufault.In Benediction, Olivier Dufault recreates the true story of his distant relative Ernest’s incarceration in a Nevada prison and his subsequent reinvention as “Will James.” Relying on authentic historical materials, including letters, telegrams, and court documents, as much as his own imagination, Olivier Dufault’s magnificent novel is a posthumous benediction of an exceptional American life in which truth and lies walk side by side.

Benedictine Monachism: Studies In Benedictine Life And Rule is a book written by Cuthbert Butler that delves into the history and practices of Benedictine monasticism. The book provides an in-depth analysis of the life and teachings of St. Benedict, the founder of the Benedictine order, and explores the various aspects of monastic life, including prayer, work, and community living. The author examines the Rule of St. Benedict, a set of guidelines for monastic life that has been followed by Benedictine communities for over 1,500 years. The book explores the significance of the Rule and its impact on the development of Western monasticism. The author also discusses the history of Benedictine monasticism from its origins in the 6th century to the present day. The book covers the spread of the Benedictine order throughout Europe, its role in the development of Western civilization, and the challenges it has faced over the centuries. Throughout the book, Butler draws on his extensive knowledge of Benedictine monasticism to provide a comprehensive and insightful analysis of this important aspect of Christian history. The book is an essential resource for anyone interested in the history of monasticism and the role of the Benedictine order in shaping Western civilization.This Is A New Release Of The Original 1919 Edition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Benedictine Military School is perhaps the most enduring and successful of all of the apostolates founded by the Benedictine Order in Georgia. The school's legacy began in 1874 with the establishment of St. Benedict's Parish in downtown Savannah and the first monastery in the South at Isle of Hope in 1876. Benedictine College, as it was originally called, was begun as a boys' preparatory school in 1902 and was organized on a military basis in the tradition of the Citadel and other Southern military schools of the era. This book tells the unique story of BC--from its origins as a small, Catholic, all-boys' high school on Bull Street to the dramatic growth that led to the establishment of today's Modernist Seawright Drive campus on Savannah's suburban southside during the early 1960s. With over 7,000 graduates, it has become a tradition among several generations of Savannah families for their sons to attend the alma mater of their fathers and grandfathers.
St. Benedict's Rule has been one of the great facts in the history of western Europe, and its influence and effects are with us to this day. This being so, it is surely strange that, as I believe, the Rule has never yet been made the object of an historical study setting forth on an extended scale its principles and its working. Commentaries there are, explaining it chapter by chapter; but so far as I know, there is no systematic exposition of what may be called the philosophy, the theory, of the Benedictine rule and life, no explanation of the Benedictine spirit and tradition in regard either to its inner life or its outward manifestations. The present volume is an effort to supply this want. It consists of a connected series of essays covering the most important aspects of Benedictine life and activities. It is addressed, of course, primarily to Benedictines; but it should appeal to wider circles--to students of the history of religion and civilisation in western Europe, as an account of one of the most potent factors in the formation of our modern Europe during a long and important phase of its growth: and also, in a special way, to those scholars and students who hold the Benedictine name in veneration. --from the Preface Dom Cuthbert Butler (1858-1934) was educated at the Benedictine Downside Abbey, where he lived as a monk and then as the abbot of the house. He published critical editions of the 'Lausiac History' of Palladius and 'The Rule of St. Benedict, ' an authored 'Western Mysticism, ' 'Life of Archbishop Ullathorne, ' and 'History of the Vatican Council.'
In Benediction for a Black Swan, Mimi Zollars explores the topics of childhood, children, marriage and divorce, alcoholism, and the sensual world in a series of edgy, seductive, irreverent, and ethereal poems. Incorporating elements of magical realism, Zollars' sexy, darkly beautiful works embrace the miraculous as ordinary - and turn the ordinary into the extraordinary.
