Memoirs of Alexander Campbell (Second Edition, Expanded)

Memoirs of Alexander Campbell (Second Edition, Expanded)

Leroy Garrett, noted historian of the Stone-Campbell restoration movement from which emerged the Disciples of Christ, Christian Churches, and Churches of Christ, has called the Memoirs of Alexander Campbell "the most important work ever published on the Restoration Movement." Its author, Dr. Robert Richardson, is described by Garrett as being "perhaps the keenest thinker of all our pioneer fathers. He was . . . a beloved physician, a good man, a gentleman, humble and self-effacing, generous and benevolent. He was a splendid teacher and perhaps the best writer of all our early editors." The first edition of Richardson's monumental work was published in 1868 in two volumes, followed by a single volume edition 1897.

While obvious typographical errors have been corrected, we have made a diligent effort to maintain the accuracy of the text. Pursuant to that end, archaic and regional spellings have been retained, although we have placed extended quotations in block format to more readily distinguish them from the author's own words. Emendations made by the author in the second print edition are listed in the Emendations to the First Edition, where they appear in parallel with the original wording from the first edition. Emendations in the list are linked to the text.
