Book Description
Ernest Holmes: His Life and Times, written by his brother Fenwicke Holmes, one of our most astute philosophical schol­ars, presents a spiritual insight into the potential and possibilities of man for peace of mind in today's stressful times. This is a book that every student search­ing for reality must read. It is provocative and contains satisfying answers for the seeking mind.
Fenwicke's contribution to Ernest is magnificent.

- (Dr. William H. Hornaday, Minister of the Founder's Church of Religious Science)

This is a true story although it reads like fiction. The records, kept by a devoted family, provide minute details of an extra­ordinary boy, born the last of nine sons, who grew up in a remote environment in the state of Maine and reached his final triumph across the continent in California where he became the founder of the United Church of Religious Science.

As a teenager he longed to know and understand God and the powers of his own mind. It was his destiny to find and syn­thesize the answers in an orderly way from the "kindergarten beginning" to the "grad­uate finish" of his mature years. Within these pages a reader can learn how the Science of Mind which he formulated came into being.

The book is filled with lively and amus­ing anecdotes, with recollections of friend­ships and pastimes, of formative years on the lecture platforms, of struggles against adverse odds, of love and marriage and loss, of spiritual conflict and growth and final triumph. But at heart it is the life story of a great soul who blended the natural and the supernatural into one gi­gantic spiritual science and won recogni­tion and honors around the world.
