American fiction -- 19th century; Short stories, American
“The preacher makes no display of his rich resources, but you are
convinced that you are listening to a man of earnest thought, of rare
culture, and of genuine humanity. His forte is evidently not that of
doctrinal discussion. He deals in no nice distinctions of creed. He has
no taste for hair-splitting subtleties, but presents a broad and
generous view of human duty, appealing to the highest instincts and the
purest motives of a lofty manhood.”—_New York Tribune._
=SWING.—Truths for To-Day.= _Second Series._ By PROFESSOR DAVID SWING.
12mo., 294 pages, tinted paper. Price, $1.50.
This volume will contain the latest discourses of PROF. SWING, some of
them preached at the Fourth Church, but most of them spoken at the
Theatre to the New Central Church. It is universally conceded that these
are the finest efforts he has ever made, and the general demand for
their preservation in more permanent form than the newspaper reports,
has led to their issue in this volume. They are selected, revised and
arranged for publication by PROF. SWING himself.
=SWING.—Trial of Prof. Swing.= The _Official Report_ of this important
trial. 8vo., 286 pages. Price, $1.75.
“It constitutes a complete record of one of the most remarkable
ecclesiastical trials of modern times.”—_Boston Journal._
“This volume will be a precious bit of history twenty-five years hence,
and its pages will be read with mingled interest and surprise.”—_Golden
Age._
