The religion taught is broad, earnest, living, thoroughly appreciative of all that is best in the past, but also thoroughly appreciative of all that is best in the present, and expectant of better things yet to come. It does not claim to be Unitarian, but rather gives the impression that its writer belongs in the ranks of what is called the "New Orthodoxy." But such Orthodoxy as we have here is distinguished from Unitarianism in nothing except its name. Perhaps all the criticism that any Unitarian would care to make upon the theology of the book is that at certain critical points, where a Unitarian would speak out clearly, the author mystifies until the hard point is passed, and then proceeds in the old clear way. The book cannot fail to prove helpful in the renaissance of Christianity that is going on in 'our day. THE REVIEWS AND MAGAZINES.
