Volume I of III. Faber was an obscure English divine, the author of some twenty-seven books, mostly on standard theological subjects, or on such topics as The Revival of the French Emperorship Anticipated from the Necessity of Prophecy. He was also a latter-day Christian mythologer intent upon the business of explaining away all myths and gods as simply corrupt versions of the Bible. This is an extensive three volume work detailing the typology between Pagan Idolatry and the Noahic History in the Bible. A must for historicists dealing with biblical history who see much Noahic history within pagan history and mythology. See other titles by this author available from Kessinger Publishing.
