Her Heart Can See
Author: Edith Waldvogel Blumhofer
Publisher: Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing
ISBN: 9780802842534
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 410
Book Description
Fanny J. Crosby (1820-1915) was the most prolific of all American hymn writers. Having lost her sight in infancy through a doctor's negligence, Fanny went on to compose more than 9,000 hymns, as well as various other songs, cantatas, and lyrical productions. Crosby's hymns, including such all-time favorites as "Blessed Assurance," continue to be sung around the world. She was also involved with New York City's rescue missions and with other benevolent efforts. She rubbed shoulders with the likes of Henry Clay, Grover Cleveland, Winfield Scott, Dwight L. Moody, Ira Sankey, Jenny Lind, P.T. Barnum, and many other famous figures who people these pages. Drawing on primary sources, including thousands of unpublished manuscripts, Blumhofer sorts fact from fiction in the life of this remarkable nineteenth-century northeastern Protestant woman, in the process showing why "this diminutive woman" was so beloved.--From publisher description.

Fanny Crosby's Life-story
Fanny Crosby's Story of Ninety-four Years
Author: Fanny Crosby
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Authors, American
Languages : en
Pages : 228
Book Description
This little book has been written in loving appreciation of one whom I knew intimately for many years, and whose hymns I have sung since baby-days. No attempt has been made to present a critical study of Frances Jane Crosby, but simply to retell the life of the Sightless Singer as she, herself, told it to me on various occasions when visiting my home. - p. 11.
