42pp, in self folding blue paper wrappers over white paper cover (wrapper is lightly worn at edges, lightly rubbed on corners and around a slightly sunned spine). Internally neat, clean and bright. A republication of an essay on pain and faith, which sets out to demonstrate that 'pain and sorrow, however perplexing to the intellect, do, as a matter of fact, find their practical and sufficient explanation in the Cross. For there, we see how, in a sinful world, self-sacrifice is the only weapon that can win the cause of righteousness', with a new preface for the second edition which sets in the essay in the context of the pain, sorrow and suffering arising from the First World War. 24mo.
