A.T. Pierson's Biography
Link: http://www.pleasantplaces.org/titles/pierson_pierson.php
This book is a real valuable book to read! It was donated by David Lopez for us to digitize, and finally it is done! It is planned to become available in Cross format, once the rest of the books on the shelf are completed. At this point, this book puts the shelf at half of the books being done, and 38.8% of the total pages.
This book also got done at a time when my computer had to have the operating system installed from scratch, and all the programs that it runs installed, one by one. There is still a pile of programs to go, before the computer will be running in full capability, but at least the language servers and more complicated stuff is working well. But who reads these blogs anyway!
The book tells the process of how A.T. Pierson grew up spiritually, and how industrious he was as a boy, and how that spirit of diligence drove him all his life, even when his body was all but destroyed. It might glamorize the man a bit, but then again, it points out that he did not glamorize himself at all! If he felt strongly about something, he went all out to do it. In other words, he was a person of conviction, and we sure need more of that today.
The book is also online, so that anyone that has internet access can read it. I just hope that some good people will take advantage of the work, and hopefully become customers of all our labors these several years!
