Review # 1 was written on 2020-11-30 00:00:00 Cyber Targeta I really love Spurgeon but I struggled with this book. For one, the kindle e-version has multiple typographical errors. After a while I learned to adjust and was able to figure out by context what a word or punctuation should be but it should be noted Additionally while this contains Spurgeon's life it is compiled by those other them himself (largely his wife). As such it seems put together at times in a disjointed manner. There is the assumption that the reader knows something of Spurgeon's life at baseline, which for a contemporary of the volume may have been familiar as one reading in the 21st century I would not suggest this as a first read on Spurgeon's life. However if you are studying his life more in-depth and already have a good base I can see how it would be helpful.

Review # 2 was written on 2020-08-29 00:00:00 Shawn Vandalfsen Read it through scans on archive.org. Moved me again and again like few things I have read. It�s rather massive, four volumes of four hundred pages. But I expect to read it again several times. Reading Spurgeon�s Autobiography confirmed me in godly confidence in the power of the word and the necessity of the Spirit. It helped to clarify my ambitions, gave new fire to my desires to preach, and challenged me to believe greater things concerning what God will do with a man surrendered to Him.
