Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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 Drawing on primary sources, including thousands of unpublished manuscripts, Blumhofer sorts fact from fiction in the life of this remarkable nineteenth-century northeastern Protestant woman, in the process showing why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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Journey into the extraordinary life and times of nineteenth-century writer Fanny Crosby, the prolific author of thousands of well-loved American hymns. Blinded at the age of three weeks by medication that was too strong, Fanny determined at an early age to share her faith and the joy of her conversion with everyone she met--and eventually sharing them with the millions of Christians who still sing her sacred words in such familiar titles as Safe in the Arms of Jesus, Praise Him, Praise Him, Pass Me Not, O Gentle Saviour, Near the Cross, and Blessed Assurance. This novelized biography of wife, mother, renowned poet, and social activist is an inspiring example of one woman 1/2s personal triumph over heartbreak. The reader is swept back in time through many diary excerpts and anecdotes. Raised by a loving mother and grandmother, Fanny, with her remarkable memory, burning desire for an education, and early compassion for the homeless and handicapped, is here introduced to the reader. This sensitivity would eventually endear her to many influential friends and advisors, and even some American presidents. She prayed that God would use her music to help others see His grace and goodness. A devoted, outspoken advocate for the needy of New York City, she was the first woman to lobby Congress for schools for the blind at a time when formal education was rare. The book contains many of Fanny's familiar lyrics and poems, written under more than 100 pseudonyms, and the stories behind them.
