- The Rev. Father Henry Grey Graham, M.A., was a priest and author of the twentieth century. He authored such works as What Faith Really Means, Where We Got the Bible (both originally published by the B. Herder Book Company, Missouri), and Hindrances to Conversion. Father Graham wrote in a clear and easily-understood compositional style, and covered material including Bible history and the difference between the Catholic faith and Protestantism's "trust in Jesus as Personal Savior." What Faith Really Means and Where We Got the Bible were both printed by TAN in 2010.

Well, this 1911 piece of hagiography did little to spark my imagination and interest in what should have been a piece on a rather enigmatic woman - and one who changed the course of religion in early medieval Scotland. Read only to compare with much better works on Margaret.
Where We Got the Bible: Our Debt to the Catholic Church, included in the book is the author’s conversion story, “From the Kirk to the Catholic Church. Henry G. Graham. 1911. Reprinted by Catholic Answers, 1997. A better title of this book would be “Where we got the English Bible.” I expected more info on Jerome and the very early attempts to decide what books should be included. The real emphasis is on different versions of the English editions. Still I enjoyed the book. The show more conversion story was fascinating; his take on the Protestants was excellent show less
Outstanding little book which provides a great intro into the formation and conservation of the Bible by the Church. My highlighter was dry by the time I finished marking all the great passages. My one wish is that Graham has included footnotes to his sources. This is a highly contested subject and the ability to reference the source material would make sustaining his arguments easier. Nonetheless, this was well worth my time.
