Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The First Hundred Years of the American Baptist Publication Society This brief story of the first century of the Publication Society has a mission of its own. It is not put forth as a substitute for the larger history, "Pioneers of Light," prepared by Dr. and Mrs. Lemuel Call Barnes and Dr. E. M. Stephenson, nor yet as a summary of that volume. Necessarily the circulation of the larger work was limited; the edition was relatively small, and was distributed within narrow circles. It was felt that a shorter history should be prepared, which could be more widely distributed, so that pastors and Sunday-school workers should have in their hands the story of the national organization which in a very peculiar sense is the pastors Society, the Sunday-school Society. For this reason the chapters of this little book were written. The author has availed himself, not only of the material presented in "Pioneers of Light" mentioned above and in the annals of the first fifty years of the Society assembled by J. Newton Brown, D. D., and published by the Society in 1856, but has searched the original records in his keeping as the Recording Secretary of the Board of Managers. The annals of the Society´s first century brought together by E. M. Stephenson are incorporated here, together with the roster of names constructed by him, and published in "Pioneers of Light." The opportunity has been used to correct some errors that unfortunately existed in the lists as they were first printed.
