Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Works of Philip Lindsley, D.D, Vol. 3: Miscellaneous Discourses and Essays N 0 full and connected biography of Dr. Lindsley has been at tempted in these volumes. The life of a student and man of letters is, for the most part, an uneventful one - at least uneventful as to single outward acts of public and general interest. In the present instance it has been thought that the best memoir, as well as the most lasting monument of the author, is to be found in his writings - not in What others may say of him, now that he is gone, but in what his own living pen had left on record. The words of such a man are his deeds, and when these are fully laid before the reader, but little remains to the biographer. Under this impression, all that has been aimed at in these introductory notices has been to present a fair esti mate of his labours and influence in those fields to which his energies were devoted, and to furnish only so much, in the way of fact and incident, as might be needful to a right appreciation both of his writ ings and his character.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Works of Philip Lindsley, D.D, Vol. 2: Formerly Vice-President and President Elect of the College of New Jersey, Princeton; And Late President of the University of Nashville, Tennessee This second volume of Dr. Lindsley's works is chiefly a selection from his Sermons, as the first was from his Educational Discourses. It may, therefore, form an appropriate introduction to present, at this point, some brief analysis and delineation of his character as a preacher. His eminent ability as an educator, and his success in founding and sus taining a new institution in the West amid manifold discouragements, were in a large degree attributable to his rare gifts and attainments as a minister Of the gospel. As a general rule, it holds good in every Christian land, that the most faithful and successful instructors of the young have been found either in the ranks of the ministry or among those who have been taught to feel that the teacher's Office is sacred and divine. The minister Of the gospel who devotes his life mainly, or even in part, to the instruction of the young, carries, almost as a matter of course, the high and sacred responsibilities of the one calling into that of the other. With him it is ever a double work, and a doubly solemn and sacred Office. And it would be well if all teachers could partake of the same spirit Of consecration, and magnify their work, as one related both to time and eternity, to be performed not only as unto man, but unto God.

Download or read book Anti Intellectualism in American Life written by Richard Hofstadter and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2012-01-04 with total page 465 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the 1964 Pulitzer Prize in Nonfiction Anti-Intellectualism in American Life is a book which throws light on many features of the American character. Its concern is not merely to portray the scorners of intellect in American life, but to say something about what the intellectual is, and can be, as a force in a democratic society. "As Mr. Hofstadter unfolds the fascinating story, it is no crude battle of eggheads and fatheads. It is a rich, complex, shifting picture of the life of the mind in a society dominated by the ideal of practical success." —Robert Peel in the Christian Science Monitor

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Blood on the Moon examines the evidence, myths, and lies surrounding the political assassination that dramatically altered the course of American history. Was John Wilkes Booth a crazed loner acting out of revenge, or was he the key player in a wide conspiracy aimed at removing the one man who had crushed the Confederacy's dream of independence? Edward Steers Jr. crafts an intimate, engaging narrative of the events leading to Lincoln's death and the political, judicial, and cultural aftermaths of his assassination.
