Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Nation Builders: A Story The plan of writing an appreciation of the itinerant preachers of Methodism, who went out to possess the American frontier a century ago, was suggested by the late Andrew Carpenter Wheeler, well known by his pen name, J. P. Mowbray. Together we had been attracted to this field, which investigation showed to have been generally neglected by historians. Mr. Wheeler, who was the son of Methodist parents, in later life developed a strong impulse of filial veneration for the genius and achievement of his fathers church. Unhappily, he did not live to complete the plan that was commenced with a keen literary zest and the ardor of an affectionate impulse; but, fortunately, he prepared a reminiscent chapter relating to Henry Bascom, and some pages that have been incorporated with other material in the present work. Although not claiming the same close affiliation with the Methodist Church as did my greatly loved associate, I have endeavored, with an earnest and reverent spirit, to carry out alone the purpose which we formed together.
