Men of the Bible, by Dwight L. Moody.
What I remember from reading, in the past, about Moody is that he was a preacher who attracted very, very large crowds. Sort of on the order of Billy Graham in his prime. While he was living, he faced some very stringent criticism, although I've forgotten now what that was all about. He is associated with Chicago. There is a school--it's probably a seminary--in Chicago named after him, Moody Bible Institute. He was a very prolific writer, and many of his works are considered classics today.
Moody passed away a long time ago. The aforementioned book, along with many others of his, are probably readily available . . . . well . . . . just about "everywhere" (Internet Archive, Gutenberg,
et al.). I haven't looked through this present book, but I'm sure that it has been "cleaned up" considerably from any version that you can get free at any time from the usual sources for free ebooks. This Ankeko Press edition has been annotated, and has been updated from the original book; I am anxious to see what improvements that Aneko Press has made.
I won't quote the full
description of the book, but I think that you'd be curious (I was, anyway) what men of the Bible that Moody selected to be included in his book.
