Interesting biography, scholarly.
Thanks for alerting us to the book, The Broken Home. It is my goal to make this an audiobook. It should help anyone who has lost a loved one, after all, B M Palmer lost a son, 4 out of 5 daughters, and his wife when he wrote it. Though John Owen lost all 11 of his children, he never penned a sentence about it. I have always said that the 19th century pastors and teachers, John Angell James, Archibald Alexander, Robert Dabney, William Sprague,Samuel Miller, Ichabod Spencer, were wordsmiths. What I have read of the book so far, Palmer comes behind none of them in relating his grief. puritanaudiobooks.net
