Jean-Jacques von Allmen

Anyone know anything about this fellow and his book, Worship, its theology and practice? It is a terribly difficult read. Its in the genre of liturgical theology (necessity of forms, etc), so not particularly in the stream of the "regulative principle of worship."

When heresy rises in an evangelical body, it is never frank and open. It always begins by skulking, and assuming a disguise. Its advocates, when together, boast of great improvements, and congratulate one another on having gone greatly beyond the ‘old dead orthodoxy,’ and on having left behind many of its antiquated errors: but when taxed with deviations from the received faith, they complain of the unreasonableness of their accusers, as they ‘differ from it only in words.’ This has been the standing course of errorists ever since the apostolic age. Samuel Miller, Introductory essay, The Articles of the Synod of Dort (1841).

Bump. Any one with impressions of the author and the book?
