Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Life and Letters of Thomas J. Mumford: With Memorial Tributes The rare gifts of his nature had, in this relationship, free scope for personal expression. In the hearts of those whom he had thus helped and served, there are tender memories which this book could hardly supplement. But the far wider circle of those who knew him only as an editor had not an equal advantage. They could feel the pressure of mind and heart in every number of his bright and attractive paper; for Mr. Mumford in his sphere as editor had an unusual power of making himself felt without allowing himself to be seen. Yet there were few who, appreciating his editorial work, did not suspect that the man was more than the editor, and who did not really lose in their distance from him even more than they suspected. It is no disparagement to Mr. Mumford´s success that he was known far more widely by his work than he was by his name. Few editors were so quotable as he. Many of his best paragraphs were reset and reprinted in other journals, which introduced him frequently to a large circle of readers who never knew the author, but who certainly felt his influence. Just how widely he was known and appreciated as an editor did not appear until his life was closed. Then the flood of notices from the religious press, representing all denominations and all sections of our country, revealed the depth and extent and nature of the impression which his editorial work had made.
