Life and Letters of Austin Craig (Classic Reprint) by William Summer Harwood PDF Summary

Book Description: Excerpt from Life and Letters of Austin Craig This volume affords a typical illustration of the truth which now and then through the centuries comes to light, that the real greatness of some men is obscured during their lives by the very amplitude of their own daily deeds; it is not until Death draws the curtain aside that the real figure is disclosed. In the span of his all too short life whose chief activities covered the years from 1840 to 1881, Austin Craig came into contact with and enthusiastically entered into many stirring events, and he drew and held to himself the friendship of many distinguished men. Prominent among these was Horace Mann, the correspondence with whom is given in this volume and it is believed will be found of especial interest by the student of educational methods. Whether as college professor or college president, instructor in a theological school or founder and president of one after his own heart where not theology but the Bible was studied, as preacher or lecturer, in his own family circle or the centre of a brilliant coterie of scholars, or rendering aid to the most unlettered or the most learned man in the long line of those who came to depend upon him - whatever the contact or whatever the event, Dr. Craig left upon it the impress of his own splendid personality. He was an advocate of industrial and scientific training. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
