Excerpt from The Life of Charles Haddon Spurgeon That Charles Haddon Spurgeon was a wonderful man, those with only a slight knowledge of his life will readily agree, but few who were not in close contact with him for many years, have any idea how wonderful he was. In the following pages an attempt has been made not only to tell something of what he did, but to convey some idea of what he was - his sterling character, his unflinching courage, his tireless energy, his mountain-moving faith, his personal piety.
