About this book
Abram Herbert Lewis, a doctor of divinity who had already written on the history of the Sabbath and of Sunday laws, argues in this volume that early Western Christianity was shaped by older pagan systems. His preface holds that by the third, fourth and fifth centuries it was already deeply marked by pagan theories and practices, and that the later course of Roman Catholicism and Protestantism cannot be understood without this.
G. P. Putnam's Sons published it in New York in 1892, and Lewis dedicated it to George H. Babcock.
