Church historian David Calhoun offers a fascinating look at the founding and first fifty-six years of Princeton Theological Seminary. Tracing the roots of the school to the “log college” of William Tennent in Neshaminy, Pennsylvania, and the original intent of the founding of what is now known as Princeton University, Calhoun shows how the seminary was established in response to the dwindling percentage of ministerial students at the college. Calhoun profiles Archibald Alexander, Samuel Miller, and Charles Hodge, and recounts the events surrounding the Old School/New School split of 1837 within the Presbyterian Church and Princeton’s alignment with the Old School. - Jeff Waddington - Westminster Bookstore Staff |
