Mr. Gladstone’s Religious Development: A Paper (1899)

Mr. Gladstone's Religious Development: A Paper (1899) is a book written by George William Erskine Russell that explores the religious beliefs and practices of William Ewart Gladstone, a prominent British statesman and four-time Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. The book provides a comprehensive analysis of Gladstone's religious development, tracing his spiritual journey from his early years as a conservative Anglican to his later embrace of more liberal and inclusive religious views. Russell examines Gladstone's personal experiences, including his struggles with doubt and his engagement with theological debates of his time, as well as his political and social influences. The book offers valuable insights into the complex relationship between religion and politics in the late 19th century, and sheds light on the role of faith in shaping the life and career of one of the most important figures in British history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
