Kregel Publications, 1999. Softcover (15 x 23 cm), 263 pages with index. ISBN: 0825436990. Very Good condition. Bumped. Rolled, creased at corners. Some light soiling. Inscription on inside front cover. "Charles Haddon Spurgeon is well remembered as the greatest preacher of the last century, but what is not so well known is the story of the other Spurgeon - Thomas, one of Charles's twin sons - who succeeded his father as pastor of Metropolitan Tabernacle in London. The author brings to life the dramatic story of Tom Spurgeon who began his ministry on the other side of the world, fostering churches all over the South Pacific while battling chronic illness and loneliness. Filled with more than 200 photographs and illustrations, this biography is a historical treasure house that not only illuminates the personal history of the Spurgeon family, but also the lives of other notable evangelicals such as A.C. Dixon, R.A. Torrey, and A.T. Pierson. Weight: 380g.
