Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Life of Professor John Stuart Blackie: The Most Distinguished Scotsman of the Day This book is not intended to be a full and continuous biography of the late Professor John. Stuart Blackie. So serious a work as that demands the services of one who, admitted to a closer friendship than I can claim, has also a greater literary power. I aim rather at giving the impressions left on my own mind and the minds of others, by a study of the life and work, the sayings and sermons, the songs and lectures, the literary and other achievements of the late Professor. This volume is but a humble attempt to give a popular sketch of the man; to estimate as far as possible the value of his contributions to contemporary thought and life; to present within brief limits a picture of what he was and what he has done. To relate the story of the origin of this book and how I have been led to undertake the work of its Editor, would be an apology to myself rather than to the public: but I may say that the task was not sought by, but was offered to" me.
