Book excerpt: Excerpt from Favourite Passages in Modern Christian Biography This book is a Treasury of Biographical facts, and at the same time, as the title imports, a collection of some of the finer passages in Modern Christian Biography. A few lines will suffice to point out the scope and tendency of the Epitome here presented of various noble lives; of the choice passages drawn from the pages of their biographers; and of the extracts from the letters and writings of the individuals themselves. Modern Christian Biography occupies a higher place in the estimation of thoughtful people than merely fictitious narrative, however ably written. The reason is obvious. Actions really performed, sufferings and difficulties actually endured and overcome, by aid of the noblest principles that can influence humanity, must always claim more attention, and awaken a deeper interest, than those which have their birth only in the imagination.
