I've never head of The Book..."Yes, Manny. I am reading a paperback copy of the "The Cloud of Unknowing" which is what I suggested. There is the other combined issue. I am not familiar with it either. I obtained my copy from our public library group--which is never generous with spiritual books.
I vote for The Cloud of the Unknowing, and humbly apologize for voting, reading yet not commenting on the last read.I will mend my ways as I enjoy this club.
Thank you for all efforts Manny. ;)
OK, we have a clear winner, St. John Henry Newman's Apologia Pro Vita Sua. Let's acquire the book. I'll lay out a schedule as soon as I see how it's organized.
There is also a free version:

Amazon has gotten rid of many of the free public domain books. But with a back door through goodreads one can still access some. On the book page look for "other editions" and here the free Amazon version of a book may still be listed. That's what I did here. Click on the Kindle Store button to download. With more "obscure" titles such as this one you will still find the free version for download. With more popular titles those links are gone now. In that case I usually look if I can find it on Project Gutenberg.

That's the edition I own. I bought it years ago. I can finally read it.

If you think I should correct that, let me know. It may require re-voting though, so I don't know if it's worth it.
