2s. 6d. net.)—This curious little essay attempts to prove, from the-prophetical books of the Old Testament, that we are on the verge of the establishment of the millennial kingdom, which is due—"according to Mr. William Redding and others "—between the years 1915 and 1920. Armageddon is to be fought under the walls of Jerusalem, and the victory is to remain with the English and Americans, who are "the lost sheep of the house of Israel." Mr. Taylor does not appear to have foreseen the present war.
