Book excerpt: Excerpt from Manual of Religion and of the History of the Christian Church: For the Use of Upper Classes in Public Schools in Germany, and for All Educated Men in General I am not the only one who has had to contend with these difficulties; they have been partaken by all those who, like me, were desirous of systematizing their religious education. During a long residence in Germany at a later period of my life, I was struck with the difference which exists in this respect between that country and England; and, thanks to my intimate intercourse with some distinguished men at the head of public instruction, I had good opportunities of ascertaining how rich German Literature is in the very books I had so often wished for, and the absence of which had been to me and to others a source of so much toil and trouble in my own country. In each of the numerous States of Germany, Manuals of great merit have been produced by independent writers for the use of public instruction. There, all the different Schools, from the strictest orthodoxy and the most enlightened liberalism to the most extreme rationalism, condense in popular Manuals their peculiar views and religious opinions.
