First Printing - An Historian’s Approach to Religion by Arnold Toynbee (1956) Vintage Hardcover Book
“Roman Catholics and Protestants make war on one another over innumerable articles of religion, but they agree on the point of holding [with one accord] that the mysteries of the Gospel are above Reason…”
Toynbee’s narrative, drawn from lectures at University of Edinburgh in 1952 and 1953, provides his conclusions on religion based on his three decades of research and study, unforeseen when he began his monumental ten-volume A Study of History in 1930.
