1878 D.L. Moody and His Works by W.H. Daniels 1st Edition About the author:Dwight Lyman Moody (February 5, 1837 – December 22, 1899), also known as D. L. Moody, was an American evangelist and publisher connected with the Holiness Movement, who founded the Moody Church, Northfield School and Mount Hermon School in Massachusetts (now Northfield Mount Hermon School), the Moody Bible Institute, and Moody Publishers. PrefaceThis record of the life and work of DL Moody the American evangelist who with his sweet voiced companion, Mr Sankey, has made such a deep impression upon the Christian world is a work both of love and duty. It is almost entirely from original materials obtained from first sources by the author in person who was for years a neighbour of Mr Moody in Chicago both before and after the great fire.Learning the plan and purpose of this volume some of his relatives as well as many of his best friends both in America and Europe have gladly adopted it as the medium through which to correct sundry, wrong impressions; and of publishing such information as in their judgment would least conflict with his desire to avoid mere personal notoriety at the same time placing before the public such an account of his early life and work as might properly be demanded concerning a religious teacher so widely known and trusted.
