Summary
"The first portion of the work, treats of past times, and of religions, and forms of religious worship, that have long since passed from civilized communities. Some allusion to them, however, seemed proper, especially to show that religious customs and institutions are changeable and progressive, and have constantly improved and been rendered more useful to mankind, as civilization and knowledge have increased. Other portions of the work are devoted to considerations arising from some of the forms of Christian worship"--Preface. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2008 APA, all rights reserved).
