Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Autobiography of Thomas Guthrie, and Memoir by His Sons, Vol. 1 of 2
The aim which the Editors propose to themselves throughout the Memoir is to preserve, as much as it is possible, the autobiographical form - that is, to let Dr. Guthrie tell the story of his own life in his own words. Personal references, personal reminiscences, formed a marked characteristic of his style, both in speaking and writing; in fact, no one who has not had occasion to examine his sermons and speeches, can form any con ception of how largely his allusions and illustrations were drawn from incidents in the course of his own life.
