Local Preacher's Magazine.-"A fascinating study. Nowhere is he clearer than in his research into religion in its influence on art, law, and character. The book will serve certainly to put wayfarers on the right track."

Sheffield Daily Telegraph.-"With rare breadth of mind, he shows us the essential truth underlying all religions, and from that he leads up to the superlative character of the Christian faith. He goes back to the origin of religion, traces for us its evolution, shows us its basis in reason, and its influence upon the world at large as well as upon individual character and conduct. The book should prove of real value to those whose faith has been shaken by modern science and criticism. It is written with vividness and earnestness."
