The Seaboard Parish Volume 1

The Marshmallows Trilogy #2, part 1

by George MacDonald

Dear Friends -I am beginning a new book like an old sermon; but as you know I have been so accustomed to preach all my life that whatever I say or write will more or less take the shape of a sermon; and if you had not by this time learned at least to bear with my oddities you would not have wanted any more of my teaching.' (Excerpt)

137 pages, Paperback

First published September 16, 1868

I'm back George! I cannot leave you for too long. Your story writing has found a special place in my heart. You are a true mystic . . . and I love you for it.

Your first sermon preached in your new parish was probably one of the most insightful renditions of Peter walking on the water that I have ever heard. I'm already into Volume 2 of the Seaboard Parish.
