by Arnold D. Ehlert, Th.D. Librarian and Professor of Library Science, Biola LENTEN AN D EASTER BOOKS AND STILL HE SPEAKS by Ed­ ward L. R. Elson. 127 pages; cloth; Fleming H. Revell Co., Westwood, N.J.; $2.50. The author is pastor of the National Presbyterian Church in Washington, D.C., where the Presi­ dent attends. He bases his work in this book on the firm ground of a genuine resurrection in fact. Accepting the testimony of Westcott and Edersheim, now reinforced by that of Richard R. Niebuhr, that there is no more solidly attested fact in history and to deny it “would be the denial of historical continuity” (p. 9), Mr. Elson goes on to explore the meaning and force of this phenomenon in the life' of the church. Actually, it is the words of the risen Saviour that form the basis of these nine studies.
