Synopsis

Offering a fascinating picture of provincial dissent in the mid-nineteenth century, William Hale White recounts the story of a young clergyman who loses his faith and is forced to rebuild his life in the skeptical atmosphere of Victorian London. This edition also includes the short story, "A Mysterious Portrait," and two essays, "Note on the Book of Job" and "Principles."
