Book Description
Excerpt from Theodore Parker I know well that a preface is at best a gesture, and a dubi ous one; a book should speak for itself. But there is one explanation that needs to be made. I cannot pretend that I have written this life of Theodore Parker in order to fill any yawning gap in biographical literature, in order to sat isfy any imperative demand. I have written it, quite simply, because I could not help myself, and I have written it for my own satisfaction more than for the edification of others. With this confession it is unnecessary for me to attempt further justification for this biography, unnecessary for me to argue the significance of Parker or the importance of his thinking or the drama of his career.

Book Description
Excerpt from Theodore Parker: Preacher and Reformer There have been of late various signs of fresh interest in Theodore Parker, and there is this further justification for another life of him after those of Weiss and Frothingham, that the former is out of print and its plates have been destroyed, while the latter, though not so large and expensive as its predecessor, is larger and more expensive than our busier and less-moneyed people can afford to buy and read. Happy are those who have these books in their possession and have read them carefully! Should any of them propose reading the book which I have written, they must not expect to find in it so much as in their greater bulk. But I have had in mind others who are less fortunate than these. I have hoped to make Parker a reality for a generation of readers born since he died, to many of whom he is little known, or mis-known, which is worse. To compress the story of his life into four hundred pages, and those little ones, has been no easy matter.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Story of Theodore Parker Some of the heresies of one age become the gospel of the next, and we are apt to accept truth, which we find ready to our hand, almost without a thought of the great men who in former years have suffered and fought in its defence. The story of Theodore Parker is little known to young people. Yet the memory of one whose reverence was so deep for the essential basis of religion should never die away; and no nobler example can be found in modern times of faithfulness to conscience.
