Synopsis
Excerpt from Life and Letters of Brooke Foss Westcott D.D., D. C. L, Vol. 1 of 2: Sometime Bishop of Durham
How his work will appear to other readers it is hard for me to tell. Whatever is written of our father must be seen by his children through a halo of hero worship. I cannot but believe, however, that these few chapters, so simple and so direct, will convey a worthy impression even to those who did not know my father personally. About his earlier days he was very reticent. And so it has come about that we who knew him best have gathered fresh ideas of him whom we so revere from such records as were found when he had gone from us. For instance, those who met the teacher in after years would never have guessed he had passed through a struggle of grievous doubt - his faith was so serene, so obviously unshaken. We know now it was not always so, as these pages will disclose to those who care to read. And even our conceptions of the oneness of that life have been heightened and enhanced by what my brother has found and brought to light.
