Cameos of Prophecy By Herbert Lockyer
Wlngspread By A . W . Tozer
Here is an example of excellent bio graphical writing. On December 15, 1943, occurred the centenary of the birth of A. B. Simpson, one of the great spiritual leaders of a preceding generation. This book commemorates ^that event. Unencumbered by dry statistics, the chapters swing along with easy grace. The author, with extraordinary faith fulness to fact, has “left the warts on,” showing Simpson’s weaknesses as clearly as his dynamic strengths are portrayed. A biographer is no novice who can do that. These eight een very short sections — many of them presenting parallels b e t w e e n David’s life and' Simpson’s—will not only invite rereading, but they will also impel it. For, with his bubbling wit, sympathetic discernment, and de lightfully crisp diction, Mr. Tozer him self will be as much appreciated as will, be the character and work that he has set out to depict.. Even though the reader may not share fully with missionary-hearted Simpson his ap praisal o f Jesus Christ: “ S a v i o u r , Sanctifier, Healer, Glorious Lord, and Coming King,” it will be an eye-opener to him to study what God did through a man who held these views. 143 pages.
