Church history -- Primitive and early church, ca. 30-600
"The praise, though high, bestowed on these excellent meditations
by the Bishop of Salford is well deserved. The language, like
good spectacles, spreads treasures before our vision without
attracting attention to itself."--_Dublin Review._

"A distinct and noteworthy feature of these sermons is, we
certainly think, their freshness--freshness of thought,
treatment, and style; nowhere do we meet pulpit commonplace or
hackneyed phrase--everywhere, on the contrary, it is the heart of
the preacher pouring out to his flock his own deep convictions,
enforcing them from the 'Treasures, old and new,' of a cultivated
mind."--_Dublin Review._
HUMPHREY, REV. W. (S.J.)
Suarez on the Religious State: A Digest of the Doctrine
contained in his Treatise, "De Statu Religionis."

"This laborious and skilfully executed work is a distinct
addition to English theological literature. Father Humphrey's
style is quiet, methodical, precise, and as clear as the subject
admits. Every one will be struck with the air of legal exposition
which pervades the book. He takes a grip of his author, under
which the text yields up every atom of its meaning and
force."--_Dublin Review._
The One Mediator; or, Sacrifice and Sacraments.

"An exceedingly accurate theological exposition of doctrines
which are the life of Christianity and which make up the soul of
the Christian religion.... A profound work, but so far from being
dark, obscure, and of metaphysical difficulty, the meaning of
each paragraph shines with a crystalline clearness."--_Tablet._
KING, FRANCIS.
The Church of my Baptism, and why I returned to
it. Crown 8vo, cloth 0 2 6
"A book of the higher controversial criticism. Its literary style
is good, its controversial manner excellent, and its writer's
emphasis does not escape in italics and notes of exclamation, but
is all reserved for lucid and cogent reasoning. Altogether a book
of an excellent spirit, written with freshness and
distinction."--_Weekly Register._
LEDOUX, REV. S. M.
History of the Seven Holy Founders of the Order of
the Servants of Mary. Crown 8vo, cloth 0 4 6
"Throws a full light upon the Seven Saints recently canonized,
whom we see as they really were. All that was marvellous in their
call, their works, and their death is given with the charm of a
picturesque and speaking style."--_Messenger of the Sacred
Heart._
