Author: Norman P. Grubb
Nurtured in the lap of comfort, educated at Eton and Cambridge,
the hero of the British sport-loving public, C.T. Studd,
whose Cambridge
career has been described as “one long blaze of cricketing glory,”
created a stir in the secular world of his youth by renouncing wealth and
position to follow Christ. His life was
dedicated to the service of God and his fellow-men, and the story of his labours and adventures makes an epic of faith and courage
against great odds that will be an inspiration to all who rejoice in a tale of
high endeavour.
