Mr Churchill and the Church.

COLE, Lloyd.

Worthing: Lloyd Cole, no date [1943]. [Religion and Politics] ORIGINAL PAMPHLET, the third edition. Octavo (22 x 14cm), pp.32. Publisher's pink printed card covers, with two staples to spine, priced at 6d. Lightly browned; some light oxidation to staples. Black ink note to front cover: 'From Central Station Bookstall, 1.11.43'. Adhesive mark to lower right corner. Near fine. A rare pamphlet containing a series of essays, each based on a war speech by Churchill, but actually concerning the challenges faced by Christianity around Europe during the Second World War. In a fittingly fire-and-brimstone polemic worthy of Gildas himself, the author condemns the 'slackening off in the efforts being put forth in the prosecution of the greater war... Namely the war between God and the sinful hearts of men and women...'. Item #52676
