Review of The Lover’s Love
In its issue for July 6, the Religious Telescope gives a very favorable review of one of our recent books, “The Lover’s Love,” by William P. Pearce. We quote the following paragraph: “The author has become quite well known in Christian reading circles; but this book gives him a permanent place among devotional writers of the highest rank. Without apparent effort it combines devotion, illustration, and exposition. It is the combination of a Cuyler’s, or Miller’s, or Hallock’s devotional powers, with the illustrative ability of a Banks, with a purpose to illustrate the one verse [John 3:16]. The author levies tribute upon history and poetry at will, that the truth of the Word may shine clearer. There is not a valueless page in the volume and no library is complete without it. We do not know that such arrangements will be made, but every preacher should have a chance to see and procure the book at our annual conferences this fall.”
