In Soft Garments: Classic Catholic Apologetics

In Soft Garments - Classic Catholic Apologetics by Msgr. Ronald Knox When the Holy See gave general permission for Catholics to study again at Oxford and Cambridge, the stipulation was made that lectures be offered to provide support for their faith, as Catholics would be a minority in a rather hostile atmosphere.
