Book Overview

Bright Skies and Dark Shadows is a book written by Henry Martyn Field and published in 1890. The book is a collection of essays and sermons that Field delivered during his time as a pastor in New York City. The essays cover a range of topics, including the role of religion in society, the importance of education, and the need for social reform. Field was a prominent figure in the Presbyterian Church and was known for his progressive views on social issues. In the book, he argues that Christianity should be a force for positive change in the world and that it is the responsibility of Christians to work towards social justice and equality. The title of the book, Bright Skies and Dark Shadows, reflects Field's belief that life is a mixture of joy and sorrow, and that it is through faith and perseverance that we can overcome the challenges we face. The book is written in a clear and accessible style, making it a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of American religion and social reform.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
