Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Life of the Right Reverend Samuel Wilberforce, D.D, Vol. 1 of 3: Lord Bishop of Oxford and Afterwards of Winchester; With Selections From His Diaries and Correspondence As the eldest surviving son of Bishop Wilberforce, to whom he left all his letters and papers, I wish to say a word of preface to this history of his life. Canon Ashwell, at my request, and by the advice of many of my Father´s oldest friends, has undertaken the arduous task of biographer. For various reasons I should have preferred delaying the publication for some years, but I have yielded to the pressing solicitations of many whose opinions I felt myself bound to respect. It has not been my desire, as it certainly would have been most repugnant to his feelings, for my Father to be represented as a faultless hero. His life is no private biography. From the close of the year 1845 to the year l873, it is really a part of the annals of the Church of England, as well as the Memoir of Bishop Wilberforce. It is in this spirit that this Life has been undertaken: it is in this spirit that it is given to the world. But it is equally certain that the true story of his life cannot be told without setting forth a great example, and without exhibiting a character of single-minded devotion to his country, to his Church, and above all to his Master.
