Description
SECOND HAND BOOK
Famous Scots Series.
If any modern minister has a place, though it were the least, among the worthies of his nation, he must have been a surprising personality. When Scottish life was based on Calvinism, and there was a Stuart deforming the Kirk at the swords point, a preacher might rise to be a leader of the people, if not a virtual ruler in the kingdom. From Knox to Carstairs the line of famous Scots such as they are is black with Geneva gowns. But for two hundred years the Protestant spirit has gone all to democracy and the march of intellect, while the clergy have stood by the vacant symbol, exiled.
Norman Macleod by John Wellwood provides an intimate look into the life and times of one of Scotland’s most influential 19th-century clergymen. This meticulously reproduced edition by Leopold Classic Library brings back to life the original text, preserved and presented with the utmost care to ensure the highest quality. Discover the remarkable journey of Norman Macleod, from his spirited youth through his dynamic role in religious and social reforms, to his profound impact on the Scottish Church. His story unfolds in this beautifully bound book that not only honors his legacy but also reflects on the historical context of his era, making it an essential addition to the collection of history buffs and scholars alike.
