Wonderful; and Terribly Important!

Herein, the incomparable Hilaire Belloc defends the Faith against the pagan and Protestant arguments made against Her. In giving context to my review of this very important book, I should perhaps make clear that I was raised a Protestant, from a long line of Protestant clergymen. In fact, my dad's second cousin was a rather well known Protestant theologian. (Yes, that Tozer.) Belloc makes his case flawlessly. This past year, I have spent much time studying Scholastic philosophy. And we readily discern the profound impact of formal logic, cosmology, psychology, ethics, epistemology, and ontology in Belloc's beautiful and insightful prose. We are most grateful to the Neumann Press for making this wonderful and terribly important little book available in its attractive new format. And it is a short book. In fact, it can be read in one good, long sitting. He who does so, in one sitting or more, will have then at his command the essential arguments for the most important truths in the history of human civilization. What more could we ask of so little a commitment of time, money, and effort. Read this very important book. And be richly blessed as a consequence.
