In this volume in Dr. Irby's 'Life and Thought' series, the Memphis Theological Seminary Professor Emeritus of Theology turns his attention to the pivotal figure in the formation of the Cumberland Presbyterian Church. An excellent companion volume to Franceway Cossitt's Life and Times of Finis Ewing. As with other books in this series, about half of this one is devoted to Ewing's life and half to his theology.
