Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Courage of Blackburn Blair
HE Courage of Blackburn Blair is the second book in the plan of a thought triology in which the three great fundamental relations of life are sever ally presented as the viewpoint from which the love theme is evolved. In The Invisible Bond, the first of the series, emphasis is given to the marriage re lation - the relation of man toward woman. The central thought is the idea of the sanctity of the mar riage bond, leading up to a larger idea: the sanctity of the marriage relation, out of which alone, in the author's opinion, is to develop the solution of the problem of divorce. In The Courage of Blackburn Blair, the emphasis is upon the fraternal relation the relation of man toward humanity, the central thought here being the sacrifice of individual privilege for the sake of the good of the many. And it is the relation of the individual toward the divine - toward those mystic revelations that are the God-given things of the spirit - which is to be set forth in The Vision Splendid, the third of the sequence, now under con struction.
