VG orig. green cloth in tattered dj. xi, [1], 344 p.; 21.5 cm. (Methodist union catalog C4151) Based on the Bishop Matthew Simpson Papers in the Library of Congress. From the foreword: `Matthew Simpson, nineteenth century Methodist preacher and bishop, was a political figure of some importance, a friend of Lincoln, Grant, Hayes,… and others. Among his admirers great claims have been made concerning his influence on Lincoln, particularly in the writing of the Emancipation Proclamation. Much less is said of the resolution he forced through the General Conference of 1868 designed to aid in the impeachment of Andrew Johnson. And scarcely noted at all is the amazing transition of the Methodism he served from a body which, in 1830, disdained politics and preached only a simple theology of salvation or damnation,to a denomination which, in 1870, was proud of the poltical influence of its leading bishop. Altogether,Matthew Simpson was a remarkable man. Born on the Ohio frontier, denied an opportunity for formal study, he acquired a measure of learning that evokes admiration and prompts reappraisal of the rudeness of our fore- fathers. Trained in medicine, he practiced religion. Awkward and uncouth, so unsure of himself in the presence of people that he dared not study law, he won distinction as one of the most eloquent preachers of his country and his times.' `If he were chauvinistic and sectarian at times, he was also the champion of learning and of tolerance, and of the magnanimity and inclusiveness of the gospel he preached. Courageous, generally farsighted, and intellectually far above most of this contemporaries in the church, he helped to prepare the way for men like the late Francis J. McConnell and present-day liberals of the Methodist church.'. 1st printing edition. Binding is Hardcover.
