GoodBookStall Review:
I was delighted to have the chance to read this 1991 biography now reprinted just as Authentic Publications has re-published some of A.W.Tozers work. Having read this I have a greater understanding of this many faceted man. His whole existence was concentrated on coming closer to God and his mission to help others to do the same. Wife, children, friends, pastoral work all were secondary to his main purpose of Bible reading, praying, preaching and writing. He became a leading light in the Christian and Missionary Alliance church in the United States, and for many years the editor of its magazine originally called the Alliance Weekly. His preaching and his writing was addressed to all people, all denominations, all who would listen to the word of God. This biography gives details of his many engagements and is laced with personal anecdotes from those he met and worked with, and his own words from the magazine, that became known as Tozer-grams, pithy sentences he used to teach and direct his readers. A very worthwhile read.
