Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Life of Braxton Craven, D.D., LL. D
The author of this book realizes that he has not the proper qualifications for writing biography. His chosen work lies in a different field. But he has been constrained to undertake this work for peculiar reasons. In the first place, he realized that the biography of Dr. Craven could never be written by one who had not been a student under him. In the second place, he realized that very few of those who knew him as a teacher had the requisite facilities and leisure for the undertaking; and lastly, that the con temporaries of Dr. Craven were fast passing away, and that in a few more years no one would be living to tell the story.
