APOLOGIA PRO VITA SUA AND OTHER WRITINGS includes seven works by Cardinal John Henry Newman, a noted English theologian, churchman, and prominent convert to Catholicism from Anglicanism. Cardinal Newman wrote his autobiography, APOLOGIA PRO VITA SUA, in 1864 in response to attacks on himself, the Catholic Church, and Catholic doctrine by Charles Kingsley. APOLOGIA expounds Newman's religious views, and explores his conversion from Anglicanism to Catholicism. APOLOGIA was key in making Newman one of the leading Catholics in England.
