A propos de cet article

Presumed first edition (same date on title and copyright pages; no additional printings listed) . Original brown, black and stamped gilt decorative cloth, beveled edges, 5 1/2 x 7 1/2 inches, 526 pp, illustrated with frontispiece of author. Hardcover, very good. Corners bumped with a bit of cardboard exposed there, minor shelf scuffing, approximately 1/8th inch deep portions of cloth chipped off head and foot of spine. Internally, second free front endpaper torn out, last free rear endpaper torn out in three pieces, but laid-in, front and rear hinges cracked, neat underlining on half dozen or so pages towards beginning of text, paper lightly age yellowed, otherwise tight, clean, paper crisp, unmarked; probably never really read past page 50. A presentation of the author's belief, apparently influenced by Theosophy, that there is only one Supreme Being, that all humans are equal, and that divine revelation is found only in nature, the universe and within the individual, with there being no heaven nor hell, but rather a progression towards spiritual perfection. He begins with a thorough examination of the Bible, Christianity, and religion in general, showing the contradictions in scripture, irrationality of Christian and other beliefs, crimes, persecutions and fanaticism of both Catholics and Protestants, denounciation of miracles and superstition, and so forth, followed by a view of Jesus not as a divine being, both rather as a preacher of a universal guide along the path of life, a study of prayer, belief and science, immortality and morality, (with a critique of labor unions and strikes) , etc. Religion; theology; philosophy; spirituality; Bible studies.…

Description de la boutique

Nestled in a valley in the Endless Mountains, where the temperature can dip below freezing even in mid-June, sits Frost Pocket Farm. While our harvest of organic produce may be subject to the whims of nature, the crop of books is always a good one. The selection is as varied as the interests of its proprietor. A native of NYC, who dissipated his youth and more mature years in used bookstores and reading, as well as earning degrees in history, biology, banking and counseling plus studying 2 years at the University of Paris, he is constantly acquiring quaint and curious volumes, as well as the more mundane, on every imaginable subject. Low overhead means low prices geared towards the trade and the savvy retail client. To the extent possible, we use recycled packaging material (economy and ecology are both dervied from the same Greek root), and all books are shipped in corrugated cardboard. Every attempt is made to accurately describe the books, including their faults, and everything is completely guaranteed! (Sorry, we are strictly mail order, and due to insurance and other concerns cannot accomodate visitors.) On-line booksellers since 1996; ancient for this business!…
