Description

The Life and Hymns of Fanny J. Crosby   --   Drawing on primary sources -- including thousands of unpublished Crosby manuscripts -- Edith Blumhofer sorts fact from fiction in the life of this remarkable worman.  Her portrait of Fanny Crosby as a gifted nineteenth-century Protestant woman shows why "this diminutive woman" was -- and is -- so beloved.  Celebrated in her own day for her gospel hymns, Crosby was also very publicly involved with New York City's rescue missions and with other benevolent efforts.  More than two dozen black-and-white photographs depict the people and settings among which Crosby moved.
