Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Gospel of Nature
These chapters were written in the city of Chicago during the summer of 1871. The ideas were given in a series of lectures through the organism of M. L. Sherman, and written in the same manner as the Hollow Globe, which has been before the public since that time, and of which this work is a sort of sequel. It is not pretended that this volume will solve the great problem of living conscious existence; but the authors indulge a hope that a perusal of these pages may reflect a flood of light upon very numerous vexed questions concerning man's earlier history, and his relationship not only to the planet which gave him birth, but to the boundless universe.
