A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Preface to a book is different from that of a critical review. A Preface is not concerned with a judicial estimate of the position maintained in the book ;or of details of the arguments employed in it; or of its relation to other publications on the same subject. Nor is it a mere I personal commendation, inviting attention to the production of a friend. It has its own part to fill in the volume. It tells of the genesis of the work, so far as that bears on its character; and of the general ideals which dominate its matter and its form. It furnishes a clue to the proper appreciation of the following chapters. That being so, it is obviously most fitting that the Author of the book himself should write the Preface. For he alone knows all the circumstances of the inception, the development, and the aim of his own work. But sometimes, as in the present instance, he hands over this privilege to a friend, who, being acquainted generally with the facts of the case, may speak of them with a certain detached independence of judgment. This book, then, is the outcome of a long and patient study of Hosea, which was undertaken in the first instance in conjunction with a neighbour, the Rev. H. J. Huffadine, of Stafford, simply as a matter of private reading. The sole object in view throughout was to obtain a clear vision of the prophets message. Later on Dr. Scott continued his investigations alone; and it was not until these had reached a comparatively advanced stage that he formed the design of publishing his results.

Présentation de l'éditeur

Leopold Classic Library is delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive collection. As part of our on-going commitment to delivering value to the reader, we have also provided you with a link to a website, where you may download a digital version of this work for free. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. Whilst the books in this collection have not been hand curated, an aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature. As a result of this book being first published many decades ago, it may have occasional imperfections. These imperfections may include poor picture quality, blurred or missing text. While some of these imperfections may have appeared in the original work, others may have resulted from the scanning process that has been applied. However, our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. While some publishers have applied optical character recognition (OCR), this approach has its own drawbacks, which include formatting errors, misspelt words, or the presence of inappropriate characters. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with an experience that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic book, and that the occasional imperfection that it might contain will not detract from the experience.
