Cloth. Condition: Good. First Edition. Between the first and last entry, this anthology spans half a century. Foremost is the compelling readability of Malcolm Muggeridge's pros. It is tart and pointed - whether discussing people or events, Muggeridge has always preferred to risk malice to mincing - never dull, never pedantic. This anthology has a two-fold purpose. First to make available a selection of the best of Malcolm Muggeride's writings spanning half a century. Secondly, to demonstrate that his pre-occupation with what might broadly be called 'religious' questions is no recent quirk of advancing years. Fortunately these aims proved compatible. Illustrations. 252 pp. Some marks to back inside cover.
