A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

It is a graceful act to commit to permanent record the memory of those who have been influential factors in the history of their times. Those who survive such persons are bound so to perpetuate the good work they have done. For every age belongs to every following age; and that which is great and good in every age is a contribution to the greatness and goodness of all the ages which come after. Even the most obscure lives leave an impress which is long in fading out from the lives of their successors; how much more, those whose force and conspicuity have made them known to all men. The memoir of the life of Dr. Hague is rich and interesting, because his life touched many other lives at many points. His individual history is, to a certain extent, the history of his time. Events pertaining to his personality have, by a wide sweep, pertained to the record of his age, and of the Christian denomination of which he was a part, and to which his life is both a treasure and an honor. William Hague was born Jan.
