Crothers, Samuel McChord. Endless life. **75c. Houghton.
The will of the late George T. Ingersoll provides for an annual lecture on “the immortality of man.” Mr. McChord, chosen to deliver the 1905 address, cites the case neither of the primitive man nor of the average modern man, avoiding a “jungle growth of superstition” on the one hand, and a region of indifference on the other, but of the simple man who is viewed in contrast to the man of highly specialized intelligence. The relation of ethical idealism to future life is discussed.
“The book is a healthful consideration of a universally interesting topic, presenting old and familiar matter with clearness and suggestiveness.” Henry M. Bowden.
