THE PHILOSOPHY OF THE CHRISTIAN RELIGION

Hodder & Stoughton, New York, 1911, reprint.  Hard cover, 583 pages including Index.  Good; boards show some edge and cover wear, a few spots and rubs; binding cracked in spots with all pages secure.  No jacket.  Prior owner’s name and date on FEP; remainder of interior clean and unmarked with occasional age spot; bit of soil on outer page block.  ‘This book may be described as an attempt to do two things:  first, to explain religion through nature and man; and secondly, to construe Christianity through religion.  The author conceives religion to be a joint product of the mind within man and the nature around him, the mind being the source of the ideas which constitute its soul, the nature around determining the usages and customs which build up its body.’ (from Preface)
