asking him how he liked it, I found he had
given away nine copies to his friends.
It has hit off exactly what is wanted.
deals with that vague atmosphere of doubt
which is so common, and dispels it by its
clear and pointed arguments, and it is
written in so racy a style that none could
put it down and call it dull."

This is a book wherein may be seen how the best learning of our times is not even brass, but is mere iron compared with this learning of true blessedness."
