Memoir of Ebenezer Fisher

Ebenezer Fisher headed the Canton Theological School at St. Lawrence University from its opening in 1858 until his death in 1879, personally training a large share of the Universalist ministers of his era. Emerson's memoir follows him from the Maine coast through his pastorates to Canton, drawing on his letters and the recollections of his students to portray the teacher who, more than anyone, shaped the denomination's educated ministry.
