“ The Academy says:—"Here are pen portraits of eighteen Evangelical teachers, beginning with Wycliffe and ending with Spurgeon. It need hardly be said, perhaps, that their eighteen biographers treat them from about the same point of view. The adifrable thing is that, though that point of view is one with which a given reader may not be so fortunate as to find himself in sympathy, it is one which has the advantage of showing the subject of the biography at his best. A very pleasant volume, and the more to be valued for the sake of its fifteen portraits." ”

“ The spiritual histories of a group which includes men so varied as the Seventh Earl of Shaftesbury, Sir Arthur Blackwood, Sir Henry Havelock, Bishop Daniel Wilson, the Rev. C. H. Spurgeon, and Mr. D. L. Moody, form the contents of Part II. In Part III. we have set before us the varied paths by which men were led out of the Church of Rome, from Non-Christian religions, and from Atheism, into the faith of Jesus Christ.
The Record says: "Mr. Isaacson has done his work well, and merits our gratitude for so truly valuable and attractive a book. ”
