Excerpt from A Voice From the CrowdIn raising my voice I cannot better state my aim than in the words of a devout Roman Catholic lay man. In the preface of his book, The Mystical Ele ment in Religion, Baron Friedrich von Hiigel writes as follows: The following book would condemn itself to pompous unreality were it to mimic official caution and emphasis, whilst ever unable to achieve official authority. It prefers to aim at a layman's special virtues and function, complete candor, cour age, sensitiveness to the present and future, in their obscurer strivings toward the good and true, as these have been in their substance already tested in the past, and in so far as such strivings can be forecasted by sympathy and hope. And I thus trust that the book may turn out to be as truly Catholic in fact, as it has been Catholic in intention.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
