Charles Haddon Spurgeon (1834-1892) was the son of an Essex coalyard clerk and minister. He became the most famous preacher of his day, respected by the Prime Minister, the Archbishop of Canterbury and thousands of ordinary people. An abridged edition for the modern reader, this autobiography of C.H. Spurgeon is reduced from the four large volumes originally compiled by his widow. It traces the development of the preacher's life and ministry and his foundation of an orphanage and a pastors' college. Above all, it shows how the success of his work was due to his simple devotion to God.
