Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Henry Martyn Christian History: A Series of Popular Biographies There are names in ecclesiastical history more conspicuous than his who is the subject of the following memoir; but it may be doubted whether any one of them is more worthy of being held in everlasting remembrance. It may be safely said that none of those who sleep in the martyr´s grave, and wear the martyr´s crown, ever laid himself more willingly a living sacrifice on the altar of the Lord, or more readily surrendered home and country, love and ambition at the call of God, than did Henry Martyn. From the great world without there are borne to our ears high-sounding phrases about heroes and heroic deeds. If we ask the world for the man whom it dignifies with the title of hero, and whose name it embalms in its annals, it points us to men of high daring and lofty enterprise - to the victor on the red field of war, to the patriot who defends the altars and the hearths of his native land.
