A look at the man and his impact

This is a good look at H E F and his impact through a long career of preaching at very influential pulpits in New York City. Many of Fosdick's works remain in print or available and you will want to read his own words as a companion to this bio. A good place to start is... A Preaching Ministry: Twenty-One Sermons Preached by Harry Emerson Fosdick at the First Presbyterian Church in the City of New York, 1918-1925 by J. Barrie Shepherd (Foreword), David Pultz (Editor).
