"With a deep sense of the importance of such a step, I venture strongly to recommend for a wide-spread adoption the following work. The special excellence is its clear and abundant statement of that body of dogmatic truth which is the great inheritance of the Church of Christ at large, and of our own branch of it in particular. A work like this, which is composed, not on the plan of a speculative discussion, but on that of a plain practical hand-book ready for the use of every young Parish Priest. Is in my judgment one of far more than ordinary value. Further, this volume appears to me to be distinguished by two other most important features. It manifests in its writer an unusual accquaintance with the Word of God, and a power of making that knowledge eminently useful for the writer's purpose. It would be difficult to find a book in this particular respect more useful to a young and diligent clergyman. The last merit I will notice as peculiarly distinguishing it is the excellence of the figures and illustrations which it contains. For these various merits I unhesitatingly recommend this work, and should rejoice to see a copy of it in the hands of every young man at his Ordination."-Extract from the Bishop's Introduction.
