About the work

The LibriVox catalogue summary, preserved with the recording, reads:

LibriVox recording of Only a Ghost! by Irenæus the Deacon by Sabine Baring-Gould. Read in English by MaryAnn Spiegel. Baring-Gould's humorous observations on the various Christian sects to be found in "the most learned church in the most religious country in the world" (i.e. London in 1870) contains a challenge to Christians of today to focus on the substance of faith rather than the forms of public worship. - Summary by MaryAnn
