The sketches included in this entertaining volume deal with high personages and problems some of celestial preeminence from an unusual angle. Each presents a theme august enough to engage the serious attention of the philosopher or theologian, but handled in a dramatic form which, infused with humour and a penetrating irony, renders them no less attractive and stimulating to the general reader. Apart from the intrinsic interest of its contents, Angels and Ministers of Grace will appeal to those who appreciate a lucid and graceful literary style.
