The Incarnate Purpose: Essays on the Spiritual Unity of Life
Percival, G. H.
Christianity; Spiritual life
"It is a book for all men and for all time. In its pages the thinker may
trace, step by step, the synthesis of synthetic philosophy. Here the poet will
find not only a worthy inspiration, but a possibly surprising vein of sympathy.
The statesman, the inventor, the litterateur, the man of theory, and the man of
practice will find alike, within the covers of these two massive volumes, an
almost inexhaustible treasury of interest and constructive thought. There is
suggestion and instruction for all the world, and an almost indefinable fascination—whether
it be due to the mere intrinsic beauty of the picture itself, or to
the dignity of its execution, or to the sense of its almost laborious faithfulness,
or to the combined attraction of all three."—St. James's Gazette.
