A curious set of ex-libs have we here. They were never read ? the pages of this set were never cut! A wealth of information from a great mind of long ago. This set was published 1 year after his death. Fiske was a leading intellectual of the late 19th century, admired for making history and evolutionary theory accessible. His historical works inspired scholars and lay readers alike, while his philosophical writings bridged science and religion, notably arguing for harmony between Christianity and evolutionary theory. A very distinctive set of book and quite the marvelous Capture of Tyme indeed.
