Having read and enjoyed the Welsh history book using 100 objects I looked around to see what else there was of that ilk and dound this Beatles book. I have read quite a few Beatles books over the years adn this was as enjoyable as the others, not spoiled by the large number of typos and one or two minor errors. It is a very good way of going through the story. The objects were guitars, records, bits of paper, etc, supplemneted by photographs and gave a freshness to the story, which I love going over partly for nostalgia sake. One reference prompted me to seek out and watch an interview they once did with David Coleman on Grandstand of all programmes.
The similar phrase 'Worldly Christianity' is one used by Bonhoeffer. It's J Gresham Machen that I want to line up most closely with. See his Christianity and culture here. Having done commentaries on Proverbs (Heavenly Wisdom) and Song of Songs (Heavenly Love), a matching title for Ecclesiastes would be Heavenly Worldliness. For my stance on worldliness, see 3 posts here.
