- Being a Collection of Sentences, Illustrations, and Quaint Sayings from the Works of that Renowned Puritan Thomas Brooks

Bag om Smooth Stones taken from Ancient Brooks

"Brooks scatters stars with both his hands: he hath dust of gold; in his storehouse are all manner of precious stones." So wrote C. H. Spurgeon in his preface to this book. He counted Thomas Brooks among his favorite Puritan authors, and it's not hard to see why. Brooks' popularity lies both in his subjects-practical truths, central to the Christian life-and in the manner of his presentation. He is consistently direct, urgent, fervent, full of Scripture, and able to choose words which make his sentences stick in one's mind. This book is a collection of sentences, illustrations, and quaint sayings from this renowned Puritan. Gathered carefully by Spurgeon out of the entire set of Brooks' Works, it remains an excellent introduction to both the man and his writings.
