Defined by Moments breaks down the life of Gideon into 13 critical decisions that either advanced or diminished his leadership. Defining moments are not the grand successes or failures for which we are remembered but are the moments, hardly noticed by others, that create those public milestones. Gideon’s story is compelling in that he offers a balanced picture of leadership’s highs and lows. This book will challenge the interpretive notion that Gideon was a coward by arguing that he was an ordinary, faith-challenged leader whose defining moments shaped him. Every decision matters, and you will learn strategies to help recognize and act upon your defining moments.

Joseph Wittreich reveals Samson to be an intensely political work that reflects the heroic ambitions and failings of the Puritan Revolution and the tragic ambiguities of the era. He sees in the work not the purveyance of Medieval and early Renaissance typological associations but an interrogation of them and a consequent movement away from them. Originally published in 1986. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press.
