Excerpt from The Religions of the World
The Editors have much pleasure in issuing this brief but luminous account of the non-Christian Religions of the World from the pen of the learned Principal of Queen"s University, Canada. It was a gratification to them when he undertook the work at the request of a committee of his Mother-Church, and they feel that there is reason for congratulation on the manner in which the task has been accomplished. Severe condensation has been necessary in order to treat such a subject within the limits prescribed, but the Editors are glad to think that this has not perceptibly impaired the charm and vigour of the writer"s style, and they anticipate for the book a warm welcome from the intelligent and large-hearted youth on both sides of the Atlantic, who feel an interest in the life and thought of the countless millions of their fellow-men that are still beyond the pale of the Christian Church.
