The blithe, boisterous son of the last great Puritan minister, he seemed destined to be overshadowed by his brilliant siblings especially his sister, Harriet Beecher Stowe, who penned the century s bestselling book Uncle Tom s Cabin. But when pushed into the ministry, the charismatic Beecher found international fame by shedding his father Lyman's Old Testament style fire-and-brimstone theology and instead preaching a New Testament based gospel of unconditional love and healing, becoming one of the founding fathers of modern American Christianity. By the 1850s, his spectacular sermons at Plymouth Church in Brooklyn Heights had made him New York s number one tourist attraction, so wildly popular that the ferries from Manhattan to Brooklyn were dubbed "Beecher Boats." Featuring the page-turning suspense of a novel and dramatic new historical evidence, Debby Applegate has written the definitive biography of this captivating, mercurial, and sometimes infuriating figure. In our own time, when religion and politics are again colliding and adultery in high places still commands headlines, Beecher s story sheds new light on the culture and conflicts of contemporary America."; 6.25 X 1.25 X 10 inches; 544 pages.
