Synopsis

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Présentation de l'éditeur

El Qlllorb to JB egin with THIS book has been written for young people, and for older folks who love the Church but do not know much about it. It is an attempt to construct an historic framework which shall be at once simple and attractive. The scholarly reader will, I trust, see signs of painstaking effort for accuracy. But my prime endeavor has been to make the course of events in Christendom easily understandable, and so entertaining that an abiding taste for Church history may be begotten in many. I have always admired tl1c grace of the Frenchman who said of his book, â? Mine is the string on which these pearls are strung.â But while threading my borrowed pearls I have found that even my string is partly spliced out with othersâ choice ravelings. To Dr. Matheson smasterly essay on The O? Z:Â lZ(ll l of Christ I am largely indebted for tl1e presentation of our Lordâs ideal of life.
