“The learned Doctor has fulfilled his self-imposed task in a manner which reflects great credit upon him; and his little work can hardly fail to be extensively useful, since it is lucidly written, simple in its arrangement, and pervaded with a warm current of mingled piety and philanthropy.”--_Derbyshire Courier._
“This little book, intended chiefly for the young, is marked with that clearness and depth of reasoning which characterize all the writings of the late Dr Abercrombie. Nor is the pious feeling with which the work is imbued less worthy of attention. As a publication likely to be eminently beneficial, we heartily recommend it.”--_The Atlas._
