    RLHF Journal Vol.2 (1990) 2. Renfrewshire's historic monuments - a heritage under threat: A summary of local archaeological problems with a bibliography and brief site list. Gordon McCrae It is said that the past is another country. If this is true, the more distant past often seems like an alien planet. The recent welcome flood of books and pamphlets about the history of our area has done little to change this perception. The study and reinterpretation of medieval, Roman and prehistoric Renfrewshire remains sadly neglected. This may be due, in part, to the problems which confront a local historian trying to make sense of the archaeological record. These problems include (a) - lack of a current bibliography of sources, or an accessible site list, for use as an introduction to local monuments; (b) the fact that much important information is only available in out-of-print books and obscure periodicals; (c) the difficulty of dealing with the large gaps in the archaeological record; which is compounded by (d) ,recent wholesale reinterpretation of classes of monuments due to advances in archaeological techniques. Finally (e) the scientific and technical nature of these techniques which make them the exclusive preserve of 'experts'. Another persistent problem, since the demise of the Renfrewshire Archaeological Society, has been the lack of a local forum for people interested in discussion, fieldwork and preservation. Various bodies have sponsored investigations over the years - Paisley Museum, Glasgow Archaeological Society, Renfrewshire Natural History Society, The Ancient Monuments Inspectorate, The Ordnance Survey, and, more recently, the Regional Archaeologist and the Scottish Urban Archaeological Trust.

    — THE PRESBYTERIAN AND REFORMED REVIEW No. 41—January, 1900. I. DR. McGIFFERT’S HISTORICAL METHODS. ROFESSOR McGIFFERT’S History of Christianity in the P Apostolic Aye came before the world with more than ordi- nary claims to attention. It had the novelty of being an original contribution to the literature of the subject by an American scholar, and the further novelty of reaching its results by meth- ods hitherto more familiar to the German than to the English reader. It was issued as a volume of the “ International Theo- logical Library” and deemed worthy to be associated with the other works of that series emanating from well-known theologians and designed for the use of theological students on either side of the Atlantic. As such, it was ushered into the world with the apparent sanction of those who, as editors of the series, are pre- sumably responsible for the selection of the writers, if not for the indorsement of their general views. And it was sent forth under the imprint of an eminent publishing firm long and honorably known for its services in introducing to the English public trans- lations of Continental theology and not less enterprising of late in the publication of new works, English or American, in that domain.* It is a book, moreover, marked by freshness, vigor and adequate scholarship as well as by readiness of resource, power of ingenious combination, and ample license of conjecture, discard- ing commonly received opinions and advancing others with singu- lar freedom and self-confidence. * [Dr. Dickson’s allusion is to the well-known publishing house of Messrs.
