Présentation de l'éditeur
Chapters I. and IX., in which I have replied to two attacks on my book, A uthority. To the other numerous notices and reviews of that volume, I have given no direct reply. The Catholic press gave it a warm welcome, which only needs grateful acknowledgment. The Anglican press has indulged in a great deal of vehement rejoinder, but without anything that I can call solid argument. Mr. Gore sattack has been met by Father Richardson sbook, 4W hat are the Catholic Claims? to which I would refer any reader who wishes for a complete and concise reply to the arguments usually advanced in favour of their position by those who are called Ritualists. The following pages deal with the historical argument, which once seemed to me sound, but which I have here endeavoured to show does not support the Anglican position. I wish to add to Chapter VII., on Henry VIII., that, in speaking of that king as possessed of a strong will, I must not be understood to speak of him as a strong character. The very reverse seems to be the truth.
