4.0 out of 5 stars Primary source material for Newman, June 8, 2000
By 
This review is from: The Letters and Diaries of John Henry Newman: Volume VIII: Tract 90 and the Jerusalem Bishopric, January 1841-April 1842 (Hardcover)
Although this book is quite pricey, as have been other recent OUP releases, this volume of Newman's Letters and Diaries is critical for seeing JHN at a critical time of his Anglican career. Here, Newman seems almost surprised by the reception of Tract 90 and it is also apparent that the Jerusalem Bishopric affair was one of the critical blows to his loss of faith in the via media. Some biographies may give us a glimpse at what was happening at the time, but here we can read Newman as he was living through it, without the benefit of hindsight.
