Excerpt from Henry Drummond

IT was a characteristic saying of the subject of these pages that the age Of biography is past. This alone might make one hesitate to publish any such biography. When it is known that a standard work of that nature exists from the pen of Professor G. A. Smith, the last excuse for offering a new Life seems to vanish. Let it be said, then, that this slight volume is no detailed work Of reference, but merely an attempt to sketch the development of one of the most attractive personalities of our time, together with some estimate of his work. It divides itself, accordingly, into two parts correspond ing to these aspects.
