Bp. McGill examines claims of various groups to be the true Christian Church. He holds these claims up to scripture, history, tradition and reason to ascertain the truth of their claims. He then contrasts these claims against the claims of the Catholic Church to show why they fall short; and why the Catholic Church is the One, True Church of Jesus Christ.

Faith The Victory by Bishop John McGill, Confederate Bishop of Richmond, Virginia, was written for Catholics in the Confederate States of America due to the dearth of Catholic books caused by the Yankee blockade. He writes: "The actual condition of the country, because of the deplorable and sanguinary war now waged, and of the blockade which is enforced, prevents us from procuring the many excellent works, which have been written and published elsewhere, for explaining and defending the doctrines of religion." Bp. McGill presents an explanation of Catholic doctrine for Catholics and non-Catholics who hold to the old orthodox Protestant beliefs and traditions, and want to know more about the development and meaning of Christian doctrine. A non-polemical work, the Bishop provides a rational explanation of sometimes difficult subjects. It is a clear concise summary of doctrinal points of interest to all Christians, without being either too brief, or tedious.
