FIRST EDITION IN FINE STATE. 'The beginnings of things possess a deep interest for all men. The modern man with centuries of speculation and other centuries of scientific research stretching far away behind him feels deeply this call to know whence came the earth with all its beauty of form and color this sky glorious with sun and moon and stars this marvelously balanced and almost infinity varied fauna and flora this great human race so unlike to the eye yet so deeply alike in its greater qualities. What a mystery it all is and how profoundly we are stirred as we reflect even superficially upon that moving question. Whence came all this". <br> The author writes beautifully and his passion for the subject is probably unequaled. He acquaints the reader with a vibrant history of archeological anthropological and theological discoveries and scholarship. His scope is wide and his knowledge of how ancient religions in the Fertile Crescent and Israel interacted and gleaned fundamental truths and forms of belief unparalleled. We learn how modern religions developed from the ancient ones and how the idea of monotheism eventually became the dominant form of belief and worship. A truly well written researched and studied book. Luzac & Co. hardcover
