The Knowledge of God, and other Sermons. By William Walsham,

Bishop of Wakefield. (Sampson Low, Marston, and Co.)—This is Volume V. of an excellent series of sermons by various "Preachers of the Day." The Bishop of Wakefield is a personal teacher rather than an eloquent preacher,—he is always well worth listening to, and more worth following. He has often spoken "plain words" very fitly, and those who know his worth will best appreciate his thoughts. In themselves, these sermons are not distinctive, but they are characteristic specimens of the Bishop's utterances.
