Wrather spent her life researching and writing about Campbell. Cummins was able to convince her to pare it down just a tad. She died after the first volume was completed. It is to be hoped that Cummins will be able to take the rest of Wrather's work and publish it, also. Very readable. Indexed. The book is a "literary biography" and is not footnoted. However, Eva Jean Wrather (deceased) was an expert on the life of Alexander Campbell and I trust that she and editor D. Duane Cummins provide a biography that is true to the facts. The book covers the life of Campbell from his birth in Scotland (1788) up to the end of 1822, just prior to the "Christian Baptist" years. The book includes a number of photos and an index. Excellent for students or persons interested in learning of one of the great leaders of the Stone-Campbell heritage. no reviews | add a review
