Summary: A solid and non-critical biography of the great Baptist preacher, Charles Spurgeon (1834-1892). Warmly evangelical, accessible, and historically accurate.
Benefits/ Detriments: The embarrassment over Spurgeon not being a teetotaler and his smoking is palatable and the discussion of Spurgeon’s theological disputes often lacks nuisance. Recommended as an introduction to the great and godly preacher.
