Excerpt from Home Evangelization The chief reason which induced me to prepare them for the press was, that notwithstanding the great im portance of the subject of which they treat, both to the nation itself, and to the world generally, there is not, so far as I know, any full, comprehensive work on Home Missions, similar to those works we have on Foreign Missions. Judging that the present Volume might temporarily supply this great want, till some thing better may appear from an abler pen, and that it might thereby be instrumental in helping forward the Christianization of the kingdom, I have ventured on its publication.
