"'She spoke as the able Leader of a great movement who instructed the officers of her Church as the occasion required,' writes Clifford P. Smith of Mary Baker Eddy, the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science.
Historical Sketches is filled with such insights about Mrs. Eddy's background and her lifework. The chapters of this book first appeared as articles in The Christian Science Journal, the Church's official organ. later, they were reprinted in pamphlet form under the title Historical and Biographical Papers, and eventually as the book, Historical Sketches, in 1941.
Written when the author was Editor of the Bureau of History and Records of The Mother Church, Historical Sketches offers the reader a well-researched reference to the early days of the Christian Science Church."
