The Life and Letters of Elizabeth Prentiss is a biographical work written by George L. Prentiss. It explores the life and legacy of Elizabeth Prentiss, a 19th-century American author and hymn writer. The book is divided into two parts: the first part is a detailed account of Elizabeth's life, from her childhood to her death at the age of 59. The second part is a collection of her personal letters, which provide insight into her thoughts, feelings, and experiences. Throughout the book, the author highlights Elizabeth's deep faith and her commitment to serving others, as well as her struggles with illness and loss. The Life and Letters of Elizabeth Prentiss offers a fascinating glimpse into the life of a remarkable woman who left an enduring mark on American literature and Christian culture.We come now to a new phase of Mrs. Prentiss' experience as a pastor's wife. Before her husband resigned his New York charge, during the winter of 1857-8, the question of holding a service in the upper part of the city, with the view to another congregation, was earnestly discussed in the session and among the leading members of the church, but nothing then came of it. Soon after his return from Europe, however, the project was revived, and resulted at length in the formation of the Church of the Covenant.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
