Recollections of Alexander Duff, D.D., LL. D: And of the Mission College Which He Founded in Culcutta (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Recollections of Alexander Duff, D.D., LL. D: And of the Mission College Which He Founded in CulcuttaAs the book is written in a language which is not the writer's mother tongue, it can scarcely be ex pooted to have any literary merits. But it has this peculiar interest, that it is the life of a great Scottish Missionary, written by one of his own sons in the faith on the banks of the Ganges, and by one, too, who was wholly brought up in one of the Christian colleges established and maintained in India by the people of Scotland. As such, the book, the writer believes, will touch a chord in the heart of every true-hem son of Old Caledonia.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
