Book Description
Excerpt from A Review of the "Trials of a Mind, in Its Progress to Catholicism" The subject of Bishop Ives' mental exercises, and which he has put forth to the world, under the somewhat complacent and assuming title of Trials of a Mind, has been strangely disregarded by his late brethren of the Episcopal Church, from which he has seceded; whether the reasons he offers for his defection are too formidable to be encount ered or replied to, or whether they are of so pue rile a character as to be deemed unworthy of their attention, we do not pretend to decide. But be the cause what it may, or whatever may be the merits of the ex-bishop's book as a literary produc tion, or whether it has any or none, is not of so much importance, as the simple principle involved, and which has occasioned all the bishop's perplex ity and anxiety for the long period of thirty years as a minister, and twenty as a bishop, of the Pro testant Episcopal Church.
