Princes of the Church

William Robertson Nicoll founded and served as editor of The British Weekly beginning in 1886. The periodical addressed a broad range of issues and enjoyed a large readership for nearly fifty years. From the publication's founding, Nicoll made a habit of writing tributes to notable figures in the Christian world. This volume presents a selection of Nicoll's testimonials, offering thirty-four cameos of such luminaries as Horatius Bonar, J. B. Lightfoot, Charles Spurgeion, Andrew Bonar, Alexander MacLaren, Marcus Dods, and Alexander Whyte.
