Book Description
Excerpt from The Life of Henry Drummond As to the letters which are quoted in the volume, I have to explain that the names of those to whom they were addressed have been given, for the most part, only where this was rendered necessary by the allusions which the letters contain. In a life so crowded with interests and activities, some facts have doubtless been overlooked. A few of these, which appeared too late to be put in their proper chapters, have been gathered together in an Appendix. In the quoted material the round marks of paren thesis and their contents belong to the original; what is enclosed in queue brackets has been added.

Book Description
Though its stand-point is Evolution and its subject Man, this book is far from being designed to prove that Man has relations, compromising or otherwise, with lower animals. Its theme is Ascent, not Descent. It is a History, not an Argument. And Evolution, in the narrow sense in which it is often used when applied to Man, plays little part in the drama outlined here. So far as the general scheme of Evolution is introduced--and in the Introduction and elsewhere this is done at length --the object is the important one of pointing out how its nature has been misconceived, indeed how its greatest factor has been overlooked in almost all contemporary scientific thinking.

Book Description
This is a book about sinners, for sinners, by quite a big sinner. You may not like it. You may even hate it, as some are sure to do. You may dislike the theme, for, though it introduces lovely people, it comes to grips with an unlovely subject. And solves its riddle. You may dislike the characters as they are limned in print, but not in real life. As they are all living, you may encounter them yourself someday, and discover their excellence. At least one will live on as an historic figure when this generation has merged with the ages. Perhaps many. Meanwhile, none can disprove the contents of this book or avoid its challenge. The story is true; the challenge is to you.

Book Description
Shortly after the death of Scottish evangelist and scholar Henry Drummond, his family celebrated his life by publishing this collection of his sermons, prefaced with memorials by evangelist W. Robertson Nicoll and theologian Ian Maclaren. Drummond addresses such topics as the nature of Christ, human sin and guilt, and salvation, and he suggests ways in which Christians can lead lives that are pleasing to God. Although determining the will of God for one’s life can often seem difficult, Drummond stresses the importance of prayer in listening for God’s voice and discerning His leading. Especially admired by young people during his life, Drummond’s warm character shines through in these heartfelt messages.

Book Description
Excerpt from Practical Life Work of Henry Drummond HE present biographical sketch seeks to recall, and to record in a somewhat permanent form, the story of Professor Drummond's work for and with University students, as well as to bring together, in simple narrative, the outstanding facts of his life. The writer had the fortune to be called upon to take considerable part in the Students' Movement in Edinburgh University in its earliest stages, and in that connection he made the acquaintance of Professor Drummond. In his case, as in that of hundreds of others, friendship and inter course with Drummond became a source of inspiration and gave birth to a deep regard.
