Contributor(s):Author: Joseph Clifford Fenton Foreword by: Scott HahnLaying the Foundation: A Handbook of Catholic Apologetics and Fundamental Theology is a classic text by the late Fr.
Joseph Clifford Fenton, a highly respected author, professor, and theologian of the twentieth century.
This book appeared in 1942 under the rather unimposing title We Stand with Christ: an Essay in Catholic Apologetic.
It should have become a classic.
It is, I believe, the greatest work of apologetics produced in a time of superstar apologists such as F.
Sheed, Ronald Knox, and Fulton Sheen.
It represents the high point of apologetics as well as a gold standard for subsequent works of fundamental theology.
--from the foreword by Scott Hahn, Franciscan University of Steubenville.
