Earlier generations of Christians had a great concern for the salvation of the children for whom they bore a responsibility, whether in the family or the community. Many books of tender gospel appeals to the young were written.
Here Plumer urges young people to seek and find the Lord Jesus Christ as the most important business of their lives. Important themes and quaint tales are employed to impress upon young minds the dangers of sinful influences and habits. Though dated and slightly moralistic at times, the concern for the spiritual good of children and young people is very evident.
William Swan Plumer (1802-1880) was an American Presbyterian minister. His commentaries on Psalms and Romans are still widely appreciated.
First published in 1849, this edition has been completely re-typeset for issue as an eBook.
