St Paul His Life, Letters, and Christian Doctrine

First published in 1920, this book examines the influence of St Paul on the early church, and was intended as a beginner's guide to the study of the apostle's impact. McNeile divides the book into three sections: Paul's life, his epistles and his Christian doctrine. The text is illustrated with three maps of Paul's missionary tours. This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in early Christianity and the writings of St Paul.
