“Sermons of more than usual worth, full of thought of the
right kind, fresh, strong, direct, manly.... Not one seems to
strain to get a young man’s attention by mere popular allusions
to a student environment. They are spiritual, scriptural; of
straight ethical import, meeting difficulties, confirming
cravings, amplifying tangled processes of reasoning, and not
forgetting the emotions.”—_Hartford Theological Seminary
Record_ (Congregationalist).
“The clergyman who desires to reach young men especially, and
the teacher of men’s Bible Classes may use this collection
of addresses to great advantage.... The subjects are those
of every man’s experience in character building ... such a
widespread handling of God’s word would have splendid results
in the production of men.”—_The Living Church_ (Episcopalian).
“Great themes, adequately considered.... Surely the young
men who listened to these sermons must have been stirred
and helped by them as we have been stirred and helped as we
read them.”—_Northfield_ (Mass.) _Record of Christian Work_
(Evangelical).
“They cover a wide range. They are thoughtful, original,
literary, concise, condensed, pithy. They deal with subjects
in which the young will be interested.”—_Western Christian
Advocate_ (Methodist).
