Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Narrative of the Deluge: With Its Dual Text and a Critical Commentary
The present work represents the literary gatherings of nearly fifty years. Altho the writer has not regarded the story of the Deluge as being at all historical since the later seventies, this work should not be construed as being any attack upon the views of those who feel constrained to accept the story as historical. It is rather a treatise on the changeful opinions held by different generations in relation to the matter; on the controversies that the subject engendered; on the curiosities of the tapic; also plain statements, mostly In the language of others, showing why the majority of students of science de cline to accept the deluge story as a narrative of facts.
