Excerpt from Tides of the Spirit: Selections From the Writings of James Martineau
This year will be celebrated the centenary of James Martineau's birth. He was born at Norwich, England, on April 21, 1805. To mark the occasion this book has been compiled with the knowledge and consent of his executors. It is intended to meet a long felt want. The selections have been taken chiefly from the devotional writings, and mainly from the later volumes of Sermons, "Hours of Thought," - the desire being to cull from this great thinker's latest and richest thought. The passages chosen are in no way exhaustive - but illustrative and suggestive. If they lead to a more intimate acquaintance with his works much will be accomplished.
