Book Description

Excerpt from The Life of the Late Right Reverend John Henry Hopkins: First Bishop of Vermont, and Seventh Presiding Bishop Four years ago this day, my face was turned from New York to Rock Point, to undertake the work which is now laid before the reader. That it should have occupied me four years instead Of one, has been far more Of a disappointment and loss to me, than it can be to any Of my Father's friends. But the task - easy as it seemed at first - was filled with difficulties which I did not anticipate, to say nothing Of interruptions from other duties.
