""Isms Old and New"" is a collection of sermons delivered by George Claude Lorimer in the winter of 1880-1881 at the First Baptist Church in Chicago. The book explores various ""isms"" or ideologies that were prevalent during that time, such as socialism, communism, and nihilism. Lorimer provides a critical analysis of these ideas and their potential impact on society, while also offering a Christian perspective on how to navigate these challenges. The book is a reflection of the social and political climate of the late 19th century and offers insight into the religious response to these issues.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
