Frank Boreham was a well known preacher who served in England, Australia, and New Zealand. He published dozens of books and thousands of editorials during his lifetime, with no sign of slowing down, even up until his death at age 88. He wrote with a distinctive style, seeming to be able to draw a spiritual lesson out of any conceivable topic. This is the third volume of his "Texts That Made History" series, in which he sketches the lives of eminent Christians throughout the ages and the specific scriptures from which they each drew their inspiration and strength.
