RELIGION. By the Rev. W.C.E. Newbolt, M.A., Canon and Chancellor of St. Paul's. [Fifth Impression.
'The Oxford Library of Practical Theology makes a good beginning with Canon Newbolt's volume on religion.... The publishers have spared no pains in making the appearance of the volumes as attractive as possible. The binding, type, and general "get up" of the volume just issued leave nothing to be desired.'—Guardian.
HOLY BAPTISM. By the Rev. Darwell Stone, M.A., Librarian of the Pusey House, Oxford. [Third Edition.
'Few books on Baptism contain more thoughtful and useful instruction on the rite, and we give Mr. Stone's effort our highest approval. It might well be made a text-book for candidates for the diaconate, or at least in theological colleges. As a book for thoughtful laymen it is also certain to find a place.'—Church Times.
CONFIRMATION. By the Right Rev. A.C.A. Hall, D.D., Bishop of Vermont. [Third Impression.
'To the parochial clergy this volume may be warmly commended. They will find it to be a storehouse of material for their instruction, and quite the best treatise that we have on the subject it treats. It is thoroughly practical, and gives exactly the kind of teaching that is wanted.'—Guardian.
THE HISTORY OF THE BOOK OF COMMON PRAYER. By the Rev. Leighton Pullan, M.A., Fellow of St. John Baptist's College, Oxford, [Third Edition.
'Mr. Pullan's book will no doubt have, as it deserves to have, a large number of readers, and they will gain a great deal from the perusal of it. It may be certainly recommended to the ordinary layman as by far the best book on the subject available.'—Pilot.
HOLY MATRIMONY. By the Rev. W.J. Knox Little, M.A., Canon of Worcester. [Second Edition.
'Canon Knox Little has given us a most exhaustive treatise on Holy Matrimony written in his best and happiest style, and giving ample proofs of wide research and deep study of the various aspects, and the essential characteristics of Christian marriage.... We would strongly advise the clergy to place this work upon their shelves as a book of reference, while it forms a complete manual of instruction to aid them in the preparation of addresses on the subject.'—Church Bells.
THE INCARNATION. By the Rev. H.V.S. Eck, M.A., Rector of Bethnal Green. [Second Edition.
'The teaching is sound, and the book may be placed with confidence in the hands of candidates for Orders or of intelligent and educated lay people who desire fuller instruction on the central doctrines of the Faith than can be provided in sermons.'—Guardian.
FOREIGN MISSIONS. By the Right Rev. E.T. Churton, D.D., formerly Bishop of Nassau.
'We welcome Bishop Churton's book as an authoritative exposition of the modern High Church view of Missions, It is good for us all to understand it, thereby we shall be saved alike from uninstructed admiration and indiscriminate denunciation.'—Church Missionary Intelligencer.
PRAYER. By the Rev. Arthur John Worlledge, M.A., Canon and Chancellor of Truro. [Second Edition.
'We do not know of any book about prayer which is equally useful; and we anticipate that it will be a standard work for, at any rate, a considerable time.'—Pilot.
SUNDAY. By the Rev. W.B. Trevelyan, M.A., Vicar of St. Matthew's, Westminster. [Second Edition.
'An extremely useful contribution to a difficult and important subject, and we are confident it will rank high in the series to which it belongs.'—Guardian.
THE CHRISTIAN TRADITION. By the Rev. Leighton Pullan, M.A., Fellow of St. John Baptist's College, Oxford.
'Mr. Pullan affirms that the critics of orthodox Christianity are now destroying one another's theories much more than they are destroying the Catholic Faith. However that may be, his book should render some assistance in determining what is and what is not "The Faith once delivered to the Saints." It is a worthy addition to the series to which it belongs.'—Westminster Gazette.
BOOKS OF DEVOTION. By the Rev. Charles Bodington, Canon and Precentor of Lichfield.
'Extremely valuable for its high tone, fidelity to Catholic standards, and powerful advocacy of reality in private devotion. To those who have never studied the subject, it should reveal a mine of devotional wealth, yet to be worked with profit to man and glory to God.'—Church Times.
HOLY ORDERS. By the Rev. A.R. Whitham, M.A., Principal of Culham College, Abingdon.
'For the educated layman who wishes to know what the Church is teaching about the ministry, and what the relation of the laity to it really is, this is the best book with which we have met. Young men who are considering whether they will seek ordination will find in it excellent statements on the position and work and responsibilities of the ordained.'—Pilot.
THE CHURCH CATECHISM THE CHRISTIAN'S MANUAL. By the Rev. W.C.E. Newbolt, M.A., Canon and Chancellor of St. Paul's.
'We think the book should be in the possession of every teacher who can afford it, and in every Church Library for the benefit of those who cannot.'—The Reader and Layworker.
