Overview

Nineteenth-century professor and theologian Robert Lewis Dabney captivates his readers with essays and lectures covering a vast array of subjects in this 11-volume collection. Robert Lewis Dabney Collection (11 Vols.) contains ten books of valuable insight into theology, science, and psychology, as well as a biographical volume taking a close-up look into the life of this Southern Presbyterian Confederate.

Included in this collection is a very practical and compelling one-volume resource on the subject of the Sabbath as a day of rest. Dabney also explores the realms of science and religion in another single volume book, titled The Sensualistic Philosophy of the Nineteenth Century. His writings and lectures have greatly influenced the Southern Presbyterian Church. The writings show his biblical scholarship as well as the intriguing historical background in which his life and experiences are set — in addition to his work as a Southern Presbyterian minister and teacher, he was a Confederate in the American Civil War. His biblically-based writings are an excellent resource for any pastor, teacher, or student, and will be the perfect addition to your Logos library.
