Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Memorabilia of George B. Cheever, D.D: Late Pastor of the Church of the Puritans, Union Square, New York, and of His Wife, Elizabeth Wetmore Cheever, in Verse and Prose George Barrell Cheever was born in Hallowell, Me., April 17, 1807; second son of Charlotte Barrell, of York, and Nathaniel Cheever, of Salem, Mass. His father acquired the art of printing in the office of Isaiah Thomas, under the guardianship of his uncle, Rev. Dr Aaron Bancroft of Worcester. In Hallowell, he became a leading man, of great integrity, energy, and force of character. He was printer and publisher, founder of the American Advocate and General Advertiser of Kennebec County, Me. He early published an edition of the "Pilgrim´s Progress," for the people of his State, believed to have been the first book of the kind issued in the then District of Maine. The moulding influence of this work was marked upon the character and life of the son. Through his father´s book store he became an early and eager devourer of books.
