Book Description
Excerpt from The Life of Thomas Arnold, D.D To his full and extended Biography my imperfect attempt is just what the mere etching is to the highly finished por trait, glowing with colours laid ou by the master's hand. Still, there are thousands, whose means, whose time, and whose opportunities, will not permit them to avail them selves of the treasures of the larger memoir, and for such the present volume is expressly written; and I cannot but hope that in many cases my little book may prove, not only the substitute for, but the pioneer of, Canon Stanley's more weighty and more extensive work; for I flatter myself that among my readers there will be those who, stimulated by the perusal of what is written herein, may desire to know more of the subject of this Memoir.
