The Life Of Dr. D. K. Pearsons, Friend Of The Small College And Of Missions (Paperback)

PREFACE: This book has been written to stimulate and encourage those into whose hands wealth has come, to make, while yet still alive such distribution of it as they would wish others to make of it after their decease. The story of what Dr. Pearsons has done is full of stimulus and hope for ambitious young men, even if born poor. It bears testimony to the value of principle, earnest purpose, and devotion to a single object while that object is pursued. It shows what a change in public sentiment, gifts wisely made and scattered over a series of years, can produce in reference to such instutions of learning as our small colleges...... Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900's and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
