An astute analysis of John William Colenso’s book, Alexander McCaul’s Examination scrutinizes each of Colenso’s arguments and negates them assertively. Starting with the Colenso’s Preface, McCaul moves chapter-by-chapter and notes the numerous flaws he finds in Colenso’s assertions. A confident work, McCaul pulls no punches in his repudiation of Colenso’s controversial book.
