Book excerpt: Edward Eggleston (December 10, 1837 - September 3, 1902) was an American historian and novelist. Biography: Eggleston was born in Vevay, Indiana, to Joseph Cary Eggleston and Mary Jane Craig. The author George Cary Eggleston was his brother. As a child, he was too ill to regularly attend school, so his education was primarily provided by his father. He was ordained as a Methodist minister in 1856.He wrote a number of tales, some of which, especially the "Hoosier" series, attracted much attention. Among these are The Hoosier Schoolmaster, The Hoosier Schoolboy, The End of the World, The Faith Doctor, and Queer Stories for Boys and Girls. Eggleston was elected a member of the American Antiquarian Society in 1893. His boyhood home at Vevay, known as the Edward and George Cary Eggleston House, was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1973. His summer home, Owl's Nest, in Lake George, New York, eventually became his year-round home. Eggleston died there in 1902, at the age of 64. Owl's Nest was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1971. His daughter, the writer, Elizabeth Eggleston Seelye, was married to Elwyn Seelye, the founder of the New York State Historical Association.... Frank Beard (1842-1905) was the principal illustrator for The Ram's Horn. He was also a widely known American illustrator in the latter part of the nineteenth century. In an article for a sister publication, Our Day, (in the February 1896 issue, pp. 85-91, Beard discussed his personal observations regarding the history of magazine illustration in the United States. In the "early fifties" (1850s) Beard was a boy of "7 or 8 years old" when he first saw Yankee Notions, which he termed "the first American comic journal," published by T.W. Strong of 98 Nassau Street in New York city. Beard's first memories were of Brother Jonathan, which he found in his Christmas stocking. "It was a large sheet," he recalled, "as much as a yard square, consisting of four pages of printed matter, interspersed with original pictures by American artists, mostly relating to Christmas times, and usually of a comic character. No present from Santa Claus gave more joy to myself and brothers than Brother Jonathan. We would spread it on the floor and lie flat on our stomachs, studying the pictures and spelling out the titles and jokes beneath them, for hours together." Apparently Beard's first work as an illustrator was for Comic Monthly, published from 1859 to 1881. Beard had an active career as an illustrator. His cartoons appeared in Judge, and he illustrated books. Beard drew covers for The Ram's Horn during the 1890s, as well as other illustrations. His depiction of the saloon and of the liquor traffic in general provided powerful propaganda for the prohibition movement, which reprinted and circulated Beard's illustrations broadly.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Supernatural and the Circuit Riders, Rimi Xhemajli shows how a small but passionate movement grew and shook the religious world through astonishing signs and wonders. Beginning in the late eighteenth century, early American Methodist preachers, known as circuit riders, were appointed to evangelize the American frontier by presenting an experiential gospel: one that featured extraordinary phenomena that originated from God’s Spirit. In employing this evangelistic strategy of the gospel message fueled by supernatural displays, Methodism rapidly expanded. Despite beginning with only ten official circuit riders in the early 1770s, by the early 1830s, circuit riders had multiplied and caused Methodism to become the largest American denomination of its day. In investigating the significance of the supernatural in the circuit rider ministry, Xhemajli provides a new historical perspective through his eye-opening demonstration of the correlation between the supernatural and the explosive membership growth of early American Methodism, which fueled the Second Great Awakening. In doing so, he also prompts the consideration of the relevance and reproduction of such acts in the American church today.

Book excerpt: "Greg Van Dussen continues to introduce us to the early leaders of the Wesleyan Movement in North America. Through their own words, his historical and pastoral commentary, along with a daily prayer focus, we find a rich and unique resource for the study of the Wesleyan movement of yesterday. More importantly, we are given inspiration for being leaders in the next chapter of the Wesleyan movement that God will use to offer the Gospel of Jesus Christ in our world! Those committed to living and leading the Wesleyan Way in the 21st century will find this resource a rich addition to their library and devotional life." Bishop Mark J. Webb Upper New York Conference, The United Methodist Church "I have cried, I have laughed, I have been challenged intellectually, theologically and historically. At the same time my heart has been warmed with a greater desire to live a Holy Life. Greg's writing is so compelling it is impossible to stop reading with one account. This book speaks to contemporary issues and renews a Pan-Wesleyan identity. A must for the new year!!" Jo Anne Lyon General Superintendent Emerita The Wesleyan Church
