The author of "The Pastor's Sketches" comes to life before our eyes as his dearest friend, Rev. J.M. Sherwood, gives us a moving sketch of his life and also adds 20 sermons from his pastoral ministry. Ichabod Spencer became known as "The Bunyan of Brooklyn" because his life so resembled that of the Tinker of Bedford who had a burning passion for the souls of men. If you have become acquainted with Spencer through his marvelous "sketches" then this is a book you will want to read, as it shows the man in the pulpit, the home and the streets. If you have never read the "sketches" you will find this life and ministry one which will both thrill, convict and challenge you to imitate him as he imitated Christ.
