About this book:

“This is certainly the boldest work that Mr. Beverley Nichols has attempted, and its deep sincerity and seriousness will command respect. It is the chart of a treasure hunt, a long quest for faith, begun in despair, pursued with courage, ending with discovery.

Here is a man (his name nowadays is legion) who believes nothing, rejecting the Christian faith, seeing no reason for belief in a personal God. How does he feel, and what does he think, when he reads of the mysterious immensities of space and time? Is he to stand dumb and powerless before them? Or will he start the hunt? His search narrows down to the story of Christ. That story he scrutinizes with all the care of a prosecuting counsel; but little by little this scrutiny convinces him that disbelief is far more difficult than belief, that the Resurrection probably did happen, that the miracles are perfectly credible.

Then, the application of Christianity in its pure form to the world of to-day.

How can it, how shall it, be applied to the problem of war? Of sex? Of money?

And what, in passing, are we to make of the Group Movement?

These are a few of the points touched on in a book of unexpected and revealing vitality, lit from within by the fire of discovery.“
