Free Download Melanie Linn Gutowski, "Pittsburgh's Mansions" English | ISBN: 1531672035 | 2013 | 130 pages | EPUB | 24 MB In the 19th century, the positioning of Pittsburgh as a major manufacturing center and the subsequent rise of the area's steel industry created a wave of prosperity that prompted the beneficiaries of that wealth to construct extravagant residences. Wealthy enclaves sprang up in the city's East End, across the river in neighboring Allegheny City, and into the countryside. Pittsburgh's Mansions explores the stately homes of the area's prominent residents from the 1830s through the 1920s. Businessmen such as H.J. Heinz, Henry Clay Frick, and members of the Mellon family commissioned elaborate homes from the preeminent architects of their day. Firms such as Alden & Harlow, Janssen & Abbott, and Rutan & Russell left their marks on the city's landscape, often contributing iconic public buildings as well as expansive private homes. Though many of the residences have since been lost, Pittsburgh's Mansions offers a look back at the peak of the city's prominence. Exploring Heaven in the Bible: The Mansions Jesus is Making by John Samuel Barnett English | March 11, 2009 | ISBN: N/A | ASIN: B001V9LTEK | 88 pages | EPUB | 0.29 Mb If the outline of Jesus can be traced in every book of God's Word, and it is, then He is blazing brighter than the noonday sun in Revelation. No book of God's Word more clearly shows all the Beauty of Jesus. From the very first verse, God declares that He is revealing (unveiling) Jesus for us, His servants, to the very last verses where God is inviting all who are thirsty to come to Jesus the Water of Life. Revelation overflows with our Lord Jesus. How are you doing in your daily time in the Word of God? Are you experiencing the wonders of Discovering Jesus? That is exactly what the Book of Revelation is all about. It is a tool, a guide and a road map into the very presence of God. It is a full color photo album of Jesus. It is a gripping action film taken from the vantage point of the control room of the Universe where God is monitoring the passing of time to the serene background music of heavenly worship. |
