"If any young novelist wishes to tell again the ever-romantic story of
the struggles of a poor Scottish student, described so pathetically by
George MacDonald and by still more popular successors, he will find some
valuable material in a little book issued in the Guild Library this week
entitled 'A Faithful Churchman.'"--_Aberdeen Free Press._
"The book can be recommended to young Churchmen of all denominations,
and will make them acquainted not only with a fine and characteristic
type of Scotsman, but also with events and movements which are passing
out of mind, but which have done much to mould the present."--_Glasgow
Herald._

intellectual conditions which prevailed under Greek culture, Roman
authority, and Jewish exclusiveness."--_Speaker._
"It is at once philosophical, critical, and historical, illustrating
with admirable force the idea that the world was in various ways
prepared for the advent of Christ."--_Baptist Magazine._

times."--_Christian World._

By the Rev. DUNCAN CAMPBELL, B.D., Edinburgh.

as lucid and graceful as it is sympathetic, catholic, and
penetrating."--_Aberdeen Free Press._

only with critical discernment but with catholic sympathy."--_Speaker._
