'Ivanhoe' a classic novel written by Sir Walter Scott is a piece of English literature that I think everyone should try to read at some point in their lives for there are many lessons that could be learned. To me it was a story of how to be fair to others. This is the story that is all about the Knight Ivanhoe and his family relationships dealing with Rowena and even Rebecca if I read it right. As a sideline it is also the story of 'Robin Hood' for you will recognize a few of those characters that the readers should know maybe from other stories. The novel about making choices.

The Left Behind Series
The book series 'Left Behind' is a great way to learn to see ideas and things in a new light. It is a series that will bring new understanding. This is a series that is written and created by Tim LaHaye and Jerry B. Jenkins. The major premise of the series is all about the last days of Earth. Who is and was right in a major discussion over the years. The series starts with the first volume of 16 books with 'Left Behind' and ends with the last titled 'Kingdom Comes'. This series is to me a fast-paced and quite illustrative reads. The creators of the books are real show and tell people. There will be critiques of each of the volumes.

Who Is Clavicular? The Looksmaxxing Streamer Who Ran Over A Stalker In His Cybertruck
What is so damaging to this current culture is the ant-intellectualism which pervades nearly every element of it. Clavicular, real name, Braden Peters equivocates physical form with getting women, making money, and overall being a strong “man.”

Many of Sir Walter Scott's books are no longer in print, but Ivanhoe is one of his best. I have also enjoyed his "Lady of the Lake".
Great review and thanks for sharing. Classic English (and much European) literature is peppered with stories of fold heroes like Ivanhoe and Robin Hood. We sometimes forget how much these characters from the distant past influence our perceptions of what it means to be a force for good against wrongdoing. Thanks for sharing
