Shedd, W.G.T - A History of Christian Doctrine - 2 Vols. (1888)
A nicely (modern) re-bound 2 vol. set of Shedd's church history work. Very tasteful and modest pencil notes & marks throughout, but not distracting at all. Bounding is very nice and tight, and pages are crisp and quite bright for their age. One of the several Shedd works that is very desirable for any theological library.
A Manual of Historical Literature, (1882) says of the work:
Though designed especially for theologians and theological students, these volumes are not without some interest to the student of general history. The doctrines of the Church at different periods are nowhere more clearly or accurately presented. As a work of reference, therefore, the volumes may be heartily recommended. With the help of a good table of contents and an excellent index, the student will have no difficulty in ascertaining what the Church, or almost any part of it, believed at any given time.
