Zechariah and His Prophecies – C.H.H. Wright, The Bampton Lectures for 1878

Today’s free book is C.H.H. Wright’s eight Bampton Lectures on the book of Zechariah, which include a critical commentary on the text. This public domain title was digitised using the copy held in Spurgeon’s College library, which appears to have belonged to Charles H. Spurgeon himself (see signature on title page).
