The Burning of the Bibles is a book written by John Dowling in 1843. The book is a defense of the Protestant version of the Scriptures against the attacks of Popish apologists for the Champlain Bible Burners. The Champlain Bible Burners were a group of Catholic priests and laypeople who burned copies of the Bible in Champlain, New York, in the early 1800s. In his book, Dowling argues that the Protestant version of the Bible is the true and accurate version, and that the Champlain Bible Burners were wrong to burn copies of it. He provides evidence and arguments to support his position, and also addresses the arguments of the Popish apologists who defended the actions of the Champlain Bible Burners. Overall, The Burning of the Bibles is a historical and religious text that sheds light on a controversial event in American history and provides insight into the ongoing debates between Protestants and Catholics over the interpretation and authority of the Bible.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
