1895ref. 28192London: Macmillan and Co 1895. First edition. Hardcover. g. Quarto. XIX 3 702 2 IX 1 832pp. Uncut. Original red cloth with gold lettering on spines. Frontispiece in each volume protected with a tissue-guard. First edition of this 2-vol. set biography of Cardinal Manning and his conversion to Catholicism. Manning's belief in Anglicanism was shattered in 1850 when in the so-called Gorham judgement the Privy Council successfully ordered the Church to institute an Evangelical clergyman who denied that the sacrament of baptism had an objective effect of baptismal regeneration. The denial of the objective effect of the sacraments was to Manning and many others a grave heresy contradicting the clear tradition of the Christian Church from the Fathers of the Church on and the fact that a civil secular court had the power to force the Anglican Church to accept such a heretical opinion proved to him that far from being a divinely created institution the Anglican church was merely a man-made creation of the English Parliament.
