WILLIAM CAREY.
By JAMES CULROSS, D.D.
"The work has a special value in recording an important
chapter of Anglo-Indian history. It seems to us very well
written."--_Academy._
"An excellent monograph on Carey. Dr. Culross has done his
work well."--_Athenæum._
"The little book has great literary excellence. Dr. Culross
has taken no ordinary trouble in the collection of his
material. He understands how to arrange it in felicitous
style, and so to tell the story as to make it eminently
attractive and useful to his readers."--_Congregationalist._
VIII.
ANDREW FULLER.
By his Son, ANDREW GUNTON FULLER.
_Letter from the Rev. C. H. Spurgeon to the Author:_--
"Venerable Friend,--I thank you for sending me your 'Andrew
Fuller.' If you have lived for a long time for nothing else
but to produce this volume, you have lived to good purpose. I
have long considered your father to be the greatest
theologian of the century, and I do not know that your pages
have made me think more highly of him as a _divine_ than I
had thought before. But I now see him within doors far more
accurately, and see about the Christian man a soft radiance
of tender love which had never been revealed to me either by
former biographies, or by his writings. You have added the
moss to the rose, and removed some of the thorns in the
process. Yours most respectfully, C. H. SPURGEON."
"It is a remarkable production, when one remembers that Mr.
Gunton Fuller is now eighty-two years of age, and he lost his
father as far back as the year 1815. An excellent addition to
Messrs. Hodder and Stoughton's series of 'Men Worth
Remembering.'"--_Christian World._
IX.
ALEXANDER DUFF, D.D., LL.D.
By THOMAS SMITH, D.D.
"Dr. Smith, who has enjoyed very intimate association with
Duff, both in private life and in public work, has executed
his task with much skill and fine sympathy."--_Outlook._
"We heartily commend this compact and interesting little
volume."--_Evangelical Magazine._
"As an original study of a great man by one of his most
intimate friends and co-workers, it would be impossible to
speak too highly of this little volume."--_Christian
Leader._
X.
SAMUEL RUTHERFORD.
By ANDREW THOMSON, D.D., F.R.S.E., Edinburgh.
"The volume is written in a popular style, and contains all
that is really needful to be known regarding Rutherford's
career, character, and writings. Dr. Thomson has imparted
vivacity to the narrative by visiting the localities where
Rutherford lived. The author has produced a volume which, in
respect at once of completeness, sustained interest, and
freshness of interest, is unequalled by any preceding memoir
of Rutherford."--_Scotsman._
