Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Young Men in History
Nothing is more certain than that the Bible is the young man's book, and its greatest story is the story of a young man. The scene in that story which would most affect young men, if they were to read the Bible as they would read Homer or Virgil, and especially if they were to read the Bible as they read any history of a great nation, such as was Israel, is the baptism of Jesus of Nazareth by his young friend and cousin, John.
