In the first detailed study of its kind, James Gregory's book takes a historical approach to mercy by focusing on widespread and varied discussions about the quality, virtue or feeling of mercy in the British world during Victoria's reign. Gregory covers an impressive range of themes from the gendered discourses of 'emotional' appeal surrounding Queen Victoria to the exercise and withholding of royal mercy in the wake of colonial rebellion throughout the British empire. Against the backdrop of major events and their historical significance, a masterful synthesis of rich source material is analysed, including visual depictions (paintings and cartoons in periodicals and popular literature) and literary ones (in sermons, novels, plays and poetry). Gregory's sophisticated analysis of the multiple meanings, uses and operations of royal mercy duly emphasise its significance as a major theme in British cultural history during the 'long 19th century'. This will be essential reading for those interested in the history of mercy, the history of gender, British social and cultural history and the legacy of Queen Victoria's reign.

And from Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, the firstborn from the dead, and the ruler over the kings of the earth. To Him who loved us and washed us from our sins in His own blood, and has made us kings and priests to His God and Father, to Him be glory and dominion forever and ever. (Revelation 1:5""6) When I had finished writing this book, or should I say believed enough had been written for fruitful thought, I threw my hands in the air as a sign of surrender, literally! It can be much compared to how a painter may never be completely satisfied with the finished work and yet proceeds to share with all who will choose to look closely to what had been accomplished. The way this book unfolded was much different from the initial perceived idea of how it could have. For instance, the verse referenced to above would have been great in my use to explain we are a royal family, and yet this scripture never made the inside cover. What did happen within this book is the unraveling of three stories, each retold from a perspective of possibilities""three short stories of how King David and his royal family had much dysfunction springing forth from one moment of adulterous pleasure. Therefore, the subject of taking care of one's relationship with the Lord by means of watching over one's own heart, soul, and mind is addressed with much detail. Then understanding of how influences try to have command over our faculties that may cause much persuasion for dysfunction and are contrary to a godly life. Finally, the subject of properly handling past hurts and how we must choose to seek healing for our own being. What we do allow to influence our very being will either enhance or hinder our relationships with others.
