"There is certainly plenty of magnificent stuff here"—The Tablet, February 16, 2002

" . . . there is much to nourish mind and heart, intellect and will - gourmet morsels for the erudite and good staples for the rest of us . . . a delightful book of perceptive, sharp sermons: they inspire and rasp, rebuke and enchant." —The Spectator, February 9, 2002

"A fascinating collection which illuminates, informs and even amuses."
—Methodist Recorder, 25 April 2002

"An elegantly produced 200-page hardback…the passages are substantial, and many of the sermons complete…this book would make a thoughtful gift." —The Church Times
In this inspiring and provoking collection, Christopher Howse has selected sermons - all exemplary works of the genre, and masterpieces in their own right which range in temper from hell-fire to profound spiritual comfort. John Donne preaches on the Holy Spirit, Jonathan Swift on sleeping in church, Jonathan Edwards on the anger of God and Martin Luther King on his dream of the promised land.
Some sermons are familiar, as are many of the authors, but this book is also packed with surprises - including remarkable sermons by John Wesley, Laurence Sterne and Sydney Smith.
This unique book will edify, delight and amuse. It is also of quite exceptional historical interest.
Christopher Howse is Comment Editor of the DAILY TELEGRAPH. Не was until recently Obituaries Editor of the paper. He contributes a weekly column on religion in the modern world.
