Apocryphile Press
They are republishing many of the out-of-print books of Charles Williams, an Inkling.
Their catalog certainly offers some unusual selections:
Heretics, Mystics & Misfits by John R. Mabry
The history of Christianity is filled with misfits. This collection of sermons introduces us to heretics and mystics from the very earliest church to the present day, including the Gnostics, Origen, Julian of Norwich, Michael Servetus, Emanuel Swedenborg, Søren Kierkegaard, Madame Blavatsky, Teilhard de Chardin and many, many more. With humor and compassion for these misunderstood characters, John Mabry explores their teachings and how they can speak to us today, helping us be better people of faith, regardless of our denomination or even religion.

History of the So-Called Jansenist Church of Holland by John R. Neale
"Utrecht is the head-quarters of the Jansenists, a sect of dissenters from the Roman Catholic Church, who object to the Bull of Pope Alexander VII condemning as heretical certain doctrines of Jansenius, Bishop of Ypres. They scarcely exist in any number, except in Holland, where they are now reduced to five thousand." --from the Preface
The Old Catholic churches have branches-both official and unofficial-all over the world. They constitute one of the most interesting and diverse movements in Christian history, a movement worthy of greater visibility and academic attention. Here is the classic history of Old Catholic beginnings-the first comprehensive work of its kind in English, now back in print for the first time in decades from Apocryphile Press.

The Old Catholic Movement By C.B . Moss
The Old Catholic movement is the best kept secret in Christendom. The fact that there is a valid (if "illicit") form of catholicism that is independent of Rome and that values local control seems scandalous to some and a cause for delight or even relief to others.
The Old Catholic churches have branches-both official and unofficial-all over the world. They constitute one of the most interesting and diverse movements in Christian history, a movement worthy of greater visibility and academic attention.
Here is the story of this unlikely legacy, from its beginnings in the fourteenth century through 1977-now back in print after twenty-eight years from Apocryphile Press.
