Bibliographies

• T. F. Torrance Quick Start with Book List; What should I read first?  + direct links to 1st eds of major books (chronological list, excluding articles).

The T. F. Torrance Theological Fellowship sponsors two bibliographies, one of Torrance Sources and the other of Torrance Studies. They are research tools to promote scholarship related to the Torrance tradition. 

Sources (all records)
This Sources bibliography includes all known publications of Thomas F. Torrance, James B. Torrance, and David W. Torrance (more than 1,500 references at present), with the ongoing goal of direct independent verification of each reference.
