Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Life and Correspondence of the Right Reverend Samuel Seabury, D. D: First Bishop of Connecticut, and of the Episcopal Church in the United States of America To very many persons it has been a matter of wonder that so distinguished a prelate as Seabury, who bore a most important part in the organization and establishment of the Church in this country, should be left so long without an extended biography. It is not necessary to inquire into the causes of this neglect. A brief and imperfect outline of his character has been given in various publications; but this is the first attempt to bring together the leading events of his earlier and his later life, and to trace him, as he may be seen in his works and correspondence, from colonial times to the end of his episcopate. The lapse of a century has carried away some of the materials for such a biography, and one may therefore regret that it had not been commenced before all the great actors, with whom he was intimately associated, had descended to the grave. I have no doubt that the Bishop himself, like other public men, destroyed many papers which he did not believe essential to the history of the period in which he lived, or which he did not care to have fall into other hands.
