Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Nearing Jordan: Being the Third and Last Volume of Sixty Years in the Wilderness
Seven years ago there was published a volume of personal reminiscence entitled Sixty Years in the Wilderness, recording some passages by the way. The favourable reception accorded by a generous public suggested a second volume, continuing the narrative. It was not less successful in attaining favour.
It may appear an ungrateful return to put forward a third. I can only plead in extenuation that, with Jordan in sight of the wayfarer, as pictured in the frontispiece by my old Friend and long-time Colleague on Punch, E. T. Reed, it is positively the last.
It is not in supplement of the others by way of enlargement of portraits and episodes already dealt with. It is simply a continuance of the story carried forward through later years.
