Religion and Reconstruction. Cloth, crown 8vo., 3s. 6d. net (postage 3d.).
If the War has taught us anything at all, it has most certainly taught us that many of our national institutions and many phases of our social life need urgent reform. Men's minds are turning towards reconstruction. The whole fabric of Church and State is quickly coming under the ken of an impatient public, and there is a danger that they will be guided more by the heart than the head. Problems of Reconstruction call for the consideration of men of stability and high character. As the Church's contribution to this momentous discussion, the forthcoming book on "Religion and Reconstruction" is one that everybody will find extremely valuable.

The book covers a very wide field, from questions of Education and Imperial Politics to those of Family and Domestic Interest. It is the book every parish priest, in fact every minister of religion, should read and discuss with his parishioners and adult classes.
