The Life and Thought of Robert Verrell Foster, DD, LLD - An Exponent of Cumberland Presbyterian Theology by Joe Ben Irby. Irby continues his Life and Thought series with this volume about the controversial professor of systematic theology at Cumberland University from 1893 to 1906. A good measure of the controversy around Foster can be attributed to one thing: he went into the union with the PCUSA in 1906.

As with other books in this series, about half this one is devoted to Foster's life and about half to his theology.
