A Short Apology For The Book Of Common Prayer: And Administration Of The Sacraments And Other Rites And Ceremonies Of The Church is a book written by George James Brown in 1873. The book provides a defense of the Book of Common Prayer and the various sacraments, rites, and ceremonies associated with the Church of England. Brown argues that the Book of Common Prayer is a valuable resource for worship and that its use is essential for maintaining the unity and coherence of the Church. He also discusses the importance of the sacraments, such as baptism and communion, and the role they play in the spiritual life of Christians. Throughout the book, Brown draws on historical and theological arguments to support his views and to demonstrate the importance of the Book of Common Prayer and the Church's traditions. Overall, A Short Apology For The Book Of Common Prayer is a thoughtful and persuasive defense of the Anglican Church's liturgical practices and beliefs.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
