Excerpt from Henry Ward Beecher: As His Friends Saw Him We have gathered into these pages views of Henry Ward Beecher by men who lived in the atmosphere of Plymouth Church as he created it and as it has survived him, such men as Lyman Abbott and Rossiter W. Raymond; by men whose genius has received shape and direction at his hands, such as Gunsaulus and Hillis; by men who felt the impulse of his power over their childhood and youth, such as Edward Bok and R. D. Mallary; by men who have felt the breath of his inspiration in other lands and through his books, such as W. J. Dawson and A. B. Penniman; and by those who have known and loved him in their various spheres of service, such as Julia Ward Howe, Amory H. Bradford and John R. Howard. The time in which this service could be done as it is done here is swiftly passing away. Year by year the circle is narrowed of those who knew Mr. Beecher intimately. Already a generation has reached middle life to whom he is known, if at all, only as a genius of a former period of our history now separated by much more than the mark which divides the nineteenth century from present affairs. The composite picture here given is in a sense new, for we believe it is the first collection which has been made of the carefully recorded impressions of so many of his personal friends, disciples and admirers. It is not likely that such a collection will again be attempted. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
