By Henrietta M.K. Brownell

Book Overview

God's Way, Man's Way: A Story of Bristol is a historical novel written by Henrietta M.K. Brownell and first published in 1885. The book is set in the city of Bristol, England, during the mid-19th century and explores the clash between traditional religious values and the emerging secularism of the time. The story follows the lives of two families, the Grahams and the Mertons, who represent opposing viewpoints on religion and morality. The Grahams are devout Christians who believe in the power of prayer and the importance of living a virtuous life. The Mertons, on the other hand, are skeptical of religion and embrace a more worldly lifestyle. As the plot unfolds, the two families become intertwined through a series of events that test their beliefs and values. The novel explores themes of faith, doubt, love, and redemption, and ultimately asks the question of whether it is possible to reconcile God's way with man's way. Written in a lyrical style, God's Way, Man's Way is a thought-provoking and engaging novel that offers a window into the social and cultural tensions of Victorian England. It is a timeless story that continues to resonate with readers today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
