Excerpt from John Keble
Two reasons give a special appropriateness to the publication of a memoir of Mr. Keble at the present time.
This year is the hundredth anniversary of his birth, a fact which reminds us how quickly time is flying, and in its flight bearing off those who could speak of him with first-hand knowledge.
Again, much has been published of late throwing light on the Oxford Movement; The Oxford Movement by Dean Church, The Letters and Correspondence of J. H. Newman, The Autobiography of Isaac Williams are books of very varied character, but they all agree in one point: they all bear a strong witness to the force, the originality, the stimulating power of that character whose humility and self-repression have often caused his real work to be undervalued.
This memoir will be found, it is hoped, more complete than any yet published.
