The 



Call of the Carpenter 



By Bouck White 



A Vision of the Newer Christianity 



"It is in the nature of a good chal- 

 lenge toward vitalizing the teach- 

 ings of Christ for those whom the 

 Master desires to help." — Louis- 

 ville Courier-Journal. 



"The Ethical value of this absorb- 

 ing study, its originality, its sincere 

 sturdiness of manner, its courage, 

 its devotion to a common cause, 

 rounds it into a profoundly signifi- 

 cant and useful social instrumental- 

 ity." — Washington Evening Star. 



"It is by far the nearest approach 

 to something that might be called 

 epoch-making in this field that 

 has recently been published. It is 

 entitled to this name because it 

 does not attempt to reconcile or 

 to explain, but boldly accepts the 

 new foundation of historic material- 

 ism and on it builds an exposition of 

 the life and work of the Carpenter 

 of Nazareth." — Kansas Corning.
