Nine Biographies of Charles Haddon Spurgeon Online

I recently uploaded the first 40 years of Charles Haddon Spurgeon’s monthly magazine, The Sword and the Trowel. Spurgeon is recognised as one of the greatest preachers of the Victorian era. Although he never travelled further abroad than France, he was a keen advocate of Christian Missions and his magazine contained regular updates about the work of his former students serving overseas. So this week I am making available nine early biographies of Spurgeon, some of which are now very hard to find in-print.
