Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Life and Times of Henry Melchior Muhlenberg
Reports the united labors of Dr. Germann, Dr. Schmucker, and myself gathered a large amount of information on the general and local history of the Lutheran Church in this country, from its very beginning down to the present time. Therein we adhered to the German language, in which the Hal/e Reports originally were published. The chilling indif ference shown toward our altogether unselfish labors by an appallingly large number of the German Lutheran clergy and laity, who in their public worship, and even in their families, habitually use the German language, and in whose behalf we had devoted years of assiduous labor and the publishers an outlay of thousands of dollars, moved me to make use of the English language in the work now offered to the public.
