Karl Johann Philipp Spitta. A Life. Leipzig, R. Friese 1861. 8vo. 287 pp. 25 Ngr. "In calling the attention of Spitta's friends to this biography from my pen, I limit myself to a couple of brief remarks about it. It is on the one hand an autobiography, since it is taken in great part from Spitta's own records, his diaries and letters; and I believe that this circumstance alone will secure the work its value. On the other hand it has flowed from family accounts, my own many years of intercourse with him, and other communications. With these sources it has been possible to present fairly completely, in its development, the rich inner life of Spitta, which is the chief thing in the course of his life, and thereby to bring back before us a time which has already begun to grow strange to us.
