Based on lectures delivered in Chichester Cathedral, this book
mirrors typical nineteenth century English attitudes toward the
non-European space. This needed Christianity and European political
oversight, or its people would remain backward and spiritually
lost. The book shows how someone whose inclinations were liberal
could look at Islam and dislike what he saw. On the other hand, the
book also shows that a non-specialist scholar in the second half of
the nineteenth century could write seriously if not impartially
about Islam using material available in European languages. This
suggests that Islam was a subject of increasing interest in
Victorian England.
