Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Champion of the Faith: A Memoir of the Rev. Chas; Henry Hamilton Wright, D.D., Ph; D.; With Extracts From His Writings and Journals
In short, he was at once a profound and original scholar, a learned Divine, a powerful controversialist, an earnest and devoted minister, and an able preacher, and in every capacity he displayed an untiring energy, and the most conscientious thoroughness. Amidst it all, he was as genial and humorous a companion as only an Irish Scholar can be, and amidst all his controversies he was generous and friendly to his opponents. The deep piety and the earnest spiritual devotion which underlay all his work, and inspired it, is illustrated in the extracts from his letters and diaries in the following pages and he was always at heart an Evangelist. This memoir will, at least, afford an outline of his character and his labour, and will help, I hope, to keep his memory honoured in the Churches of England and Ireland, and to ensure due attention to the valuable works which remain as the results of his learning and his devotion.
