Two Y Men: David A. Sinclair Secretary and Edwin L. Shuey Layman; Partners in the Service of the Y.M.C.A. by Nolan Rice Best is a non-fiction book that tells the story of two men who dedicated their lives to the Young Men's Christian Association (Y.M.C.A.). David A. Sinclair was a secretary for the Y.M.C.A. in the early 20th century, and Edwin L. Shuey was a layman who worked alongside him. Together, they helped to shape the organization and make it a vital part of communities across the United States.The book begins by introducing the reader to Sinclair and Shuey, providing background information on their lives and how they came to be involved with the Y.M.C.A. From there, the book explores their partnership and the work they did together, including establishing new branches of the Y.M.C.A. in various cities and towns, providing support to soldiers during World War I, and promoting physical fitness and healthy living.Throughout the book, the author uses primary sources, including letters and diaries, to provide a rich and detailed account of Sinclair and Shuey's work with the Y.M.C.A. The book also includes photographs and other illustrations that help bring their story to life.Overall, Two Y Men is a fascinating look at the history of the Y.M.C.A. and the important role that individuals like Sinclair and Shuey played in its success. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of the Y.M.C.A. or the broader history of community organizations in the United States.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
