I just finished his
Apologia Pro Vita Sua. If you haven't read it already, pick it up.
But I warn you, you'll never be able to feel the same way about Westward Ho! or The Water Babies again. Kingsley did not play the part of an honest or an honorable man in that controversy.

I've read Apologia Pro Vita Sua twice and got even more out of it the second time. Newman is so incredibly logical and brilliant in explaining why the Catholic Church is the one True Church established by Christ.

I read "Apologia Pro Vita Sua" in grad school but I would love to read it again if I ever find the time. We read several works of Newman's and I did my paper for the course on Newman and Hume.
