Richard Whately: A Man for All Seasons

by Craig A. Parton

A controversial figure in his lifetime; all but forgotten today. This book re-introduces to the modern reader the man of whom John Henry Newman said, "He taught me to think and open my mind." Included are two of Whately's own essays in which he presented the case for the truthfulness of Christianity, Historic Doubts Relative to Napoleon Buonaparte and Historic Certainties Respecting the Early History of America.
