“It seems that even Christians who enjoy apologetics are seldom very knowledgeable regarding the history of this storied discipline. Further, very few books even address this subject. Gannon Murphy's volume seeks to remedy that lack, not only by choosing major, influential apologists of past generations, but by linking each to his historical context. This should be an invaluable addition to the literature.”
“This book is a well written and helpful analysis of a wealth of apologetic materials from a select number of great Christian apologists down through the centuries.”
“Gannon Murphy has done a great service for both Christian apologists and the wider believing community. With impressive depth, he presents the ideas and arguments set forth by the leading defenders of the faith across the ages. He reminds us of the debt of gratitude we owe to those giants on whose shoulders we stand.”
