Opinions of the Press.
“The present volume we should think is by far the best which the author
has sent forth. This, indeed, is the most fundamental and comprehensive
argument on the principles involved in the ritualistic controversy which
we have yet seen.”—_London Quarterly Review._
“We heartily recommend to our readers this eloquent, vigorous, and
well-reasoned book. It puts things familiar to only a few strong
thinkers in fresh and forcible lights; it is a noble vindication of the
spirituality and freedom of the Christian life; it is written in a manly
chastened style, and is inspired by a high-toned and earnest spiritual
feeling,”—_English Independent._
“His style is as forcible and eloquent as his thinking is clear and
vigorous. Of the genuine power of the book—a power derived from its
high-toned principle, its manly freedom, its intense earnestness—there
can be no question.”—_Nonconformist._
“A thoughtful, earnest, and intelligent protest against the idolatry of
the priest, of the sacrament, and of the word, written with manly vigour
and much beauty.”—_Freeman._
