BOOK NOTES

 

College Press is considering another issue of Alexander Campbell’s 41-volume set of Millennial Harbinger, which will retail for $495.00. Advance orders can save as much as $100.00. If you are interested, let us know and we may be able to work out a way for you to pay for it over several payments. But the publisher needs an early response so that he can proceed with this monumental task with confidence.

Still in print from College Press are the two classics by Louie Cochran, Raccoon John Smith and The Fool of God, the later being a historical novel on the life of Alexander Campbell. Both books are rich in Americana as well as biography. And the genius of the Movement comes through. They are $12.95 each postpaid.

The Stone-Campbell Movement by Leroy Garrett is available at $21.95 and if you remit in advance we pay the postage. Some who have read it report to us that they read it a second and third time. You can get a copy free by sending us 8 subs to this journal, new or renewal, including your own, at $3.00 per sub, $24.00 total.

K. C. Moser’s old books remain good sellers, The Way of Salvation and The Gist of Romans. Moser was among the first to appeal for renewal among Churches of Christ based upon the grace of God. $6.25 each postpaid.

The Mormon Papers questions Mormonism at its roots, their additional scriptures. $4.50 postpaid.

B. W. Johnson, one of the ablest of our pioneer preachers, first believed the Book of Revelation could not be understood. After many years of study he changed his mind and published Vision of the Ages. It is simply written and beautifully bound in hardcover. $7.25 postpaid.

You are not likely to find anything better on the life and letters of the great apostle than F. F. Bruce’s Paul: Apostle of the Heart Set Free. Extravagantly informative. $19.50 postpaid.
