Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life of Alexander Duff, D.D., LL. D LL.D., was first published in London, by Messrs. Hodder and Stoughton, in two royal octavo volumes. A second English edition appeared in 1880. In 1881 the Canada edition of the two volumes was issued in Toronto by Mr. William Briggs. In the United States of America, Messrs. A. C. Armstrong and Son issued the first two-volume edition. This was soon followed by a cheaper edition in one volume, for which the late W. M. Taylor, D.D., of New York, wrote an Introduction. In 1881 the American Tract Society issued a third edition, assigning to the author The George Wood Medal and Premium because of his fine transcript of the wonderful life of this devoted and eloquent missionary to India. For a new generation of readers, at the opening of a new century of missionary enterprise, the publishers are glad to be able to issue this third English edition, somewhat abridged by the author, and brought down to date. The price puts the book within the reach of all classes, and especially of student volunteers and all young men and women whom Alexander Duff sought to draw to the foreign mission field.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life of Alexander Duff, D.D., LL. D: Two Volumes in One Duff himself, when, in the fulness Of his fame, he solemnly congratulated a young friend on a firstborn son, that in nothing is the Sovereignty of God so clearly seen as in the birth of a child; the fact, the sex, the circumstances, the bent. To be at all, is much; to be this rather than that is, to the individual, more but to be the subject and the channel of a divine force such as has made the men who have reformed the world, in the days from the apostles to the greatest modern missionaries, is so very much more, that we may well look in every case for the signs which lie about their infancy: In this case these signs are near the sur face. It was through the prince of the Evangelicals of the Church of England that, unconsciously to both, grace flowed, at one remove, to the distant Highland boy of the Presbyterian kirk, who became the prince of Evangelical missionaries. And the grace was the same in both for it was marked by the catholicity of true Evangelicalism, which is not always found in the sectarian divisions and strifes of the Reformed Churches.

This book was released on 2010-02-18 with total page 1064 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: George Smith (1833-1919) spent many years in India as an educator and editor of the Calcutta Review. He was a great supporter of missionary work and became secretary of the foreign mission committee of the Free Church of Scotland in 1870. He also wrote popular books of missionary biography including this two-volume Life of Alexander Duff (1879). Duff (1806-1878) was the first foreign missionary of the Church of Scotland and a leading figure in promoting Christian education in India. Duff pioneered what he called 'downward filter theory' which centred on educating India's upper caste through English in the hope that this elite group would then take responsibility for the evangelisation and modernisation of South Asia. This strategy did not produce many converts but Duff remained a well-regarded missionary and educationalist and was influential in the 1833 and 1854 educational reforms implemented by the British colonial government.
