Summary

"Jonathan Edwards is one of the most extraordinary figures in American history. Arguably the most brilliant theologian ever born on American soil, Edwards [1703-1758] was also a pastor, a renowned preacher, a missionary to the Native Americans, a biographer, a college president, a philosopher, a loving husband, and the father of eleven children." "George M. Marsden presents here a new, shorter biography of this many-sided, remarkable man. A Short Life of Jonathan Edwards is not an abridgment of Marsden's earlier award-winning study but a completely new narrative based on his extensive research. This retelling of the Edwards story is sure to reach a much wider reading audience."--BOOK JACKET.
