“‘A Synopsis of the Christian Evidences’ would be no untrue title for this work. It brings together and presents in one view such an accumulation of proofs of the truth of the Bible as we never remember to have met with before.”—Christian Observer.
“Exhibiting much research, the author presents his arguments in a clear and forcible manner, and without any personal invective he overwhelms with ridicule the deductions which infidels draw from scientific evidence. Throughout he preserves a dignified style, and while taking great pains to expose the assumption of philosophy, he never neglects to attack the lesser, but no less mischievous assaults of ignorance. As a valiant champion, our author is well armed at all points, and uses his weapons dexterously.”—Public Opinion.
