The Religion of the Plain Man

Mgr. Robert Hugh Benson

Benson's short apologetic of 1906 for the ordinary English reader: through the questions of an imagined plain man, John, it considers English religion, the characteristics of the Roman Church, the Petrine claims, development, infallibility, intellect, emotion and faith, and what a convert exchanges, with appendices on St Peter in Scripture and the primitive papalists.
