Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Pisgah Book, 1784-1909: A Memorial, a Lesson, an Inspiration In preparing the following record and sketch of Pisgah it has been the purpose of the writer to present, in as convenient, durable, and attractive form as seemed practicable, a brief, accurate, authentic and readable account of the Pisgah church and community as they have been, and as they are to-day, in order that there might be an available and reliable record of the chief events in Pisgah's history, a suitable memorial of its past, and an appropriate souvenir of the one hundred and twenty-fifth anniversary recently celebrated by the church. It is hoped that this purpose has been, at least in part, accomplished. At any rate, the record of Pisgah is now available to all who may be interested in it, and, as far as it has been possible, with the known sources of information, it has been made accurate. It is also as complete as the sources would permit. These sources are chiefly the records of the Presbyteries of Transylvania and West Lexington, the Session Books of the Pisgah church, the farewell sermon of Dr. Blythe, and certain family and neighborhood traditions which seem, as to their essence at least, to be trustworthy. These have been supplemented by the recognized authorities, Davidson's History and Rice's Memoirs. The labor and time involved in the proper use of all these have been greatly lessened by reason of the writer's having access to the careful and complete chronicle of the church, prepared at the direction of the Presbytery of West Lexington for the celebration of its centennial in 1899, by the painstaking and efficient Clerk of Session of the Pisgah church, Dr. E. S. Hart. The record is as full as seemed consistent with the brevity determined upon at the outset. It has been a matter of regret that heretofore we have so largely neglected to record that portion of our story which was in the memories, and on the lips, of the venerable men and women, whose lives connected the present with our remotest past, who only lately have passed to the bright, but unresponding shore. And it is in the hope that we who are alive and remain may take to heart the lesson of this fact and preserve the more carefully, for them that come after us, the continuing story of Pisgah and her people, that this book is made.

Download or read book A Presbyterian Bibliography written by Harold B. Prince and published by Scarecrow Press. This book was released on 1983 with total page 478 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Librarians, historians, researchers, students, and others interested in examining the literary production of Southern Presbyterian ministers and works written about them will find A Presbyterian Bibliography invaluable. A 4,187-entry listing of extant published writings of ministers ordained by or received into the Presbyterian Church in the United States in its first hundred years, 1861-1961, this bibliography lists works by and about PCUS ministers and gives locations of all editions found in eight significant theological collections in the U.S.A. Presbyterian seminary libraries are those of Austin, Columbia, Louisville, Princeton, Reformed, and Union (Virginia); included also are the libraries of the Historical Foundation of the Presbyterian and Reformed Churches and the Presbyterian Historical Society. An examination of this listing of published (i.e., printed) books, parts of books, pamphlets, and periodical article repreints shows that PCUS ministers became authors, editors, translators, poets, dramatists, composers, and essayists who wrote sermons, polemics, commentaries, Bible studies, theologies, histories, and letters to Presidents. Content notes and annotations for many books indicate individual minister contributions. A subject index, and indexes leading to every listing of a minister's name and to the main entries of the other presons gives access to the Bibliography.
