A Tale of a Tub is a satirical work by Jonathan Swift, first published in 1704. The book is divided into three parts, each of which is a parody of a different aspect of Christianity. The first part is a parody of the Catholic Church, the second part is a parody of the Church of England, and the third part is a parody of the Puritans. In addition to A Tale of a Tub, this edition of the book also includes two other works by Swift: The Battle of the Books and The Mechanical Operation of the Spirit.
