Excerpt from Good Cheer for a Year: Selections From the Writings of the Rt. Rev. Phillips Brooks, D. D
It is too soon to let the ministry of Bishop Brooks pass into the shadow of forgetfulness. He "yet speaketh" in a multitude of works which, in a remarkable degree, combine lofty spirituality and plain practicalness with rare human sympathy, and are therefore particularly well adapted to the sustenance and guidance of the daily Christian life. There are those who are so fortunate as to be able to study these works as a whole, but there are also many busy people who are glad to have one thought, suitable and sufficient unto the day, ready to their hands in a convenient form. To such a second year-book is offered, not by the same hand as the first, but compiled on the same plan, for the excellent reason that it cannot be bettered.
The labor of making the book has been increased by the abundance of the material.
