Her Heart Can See

Drawing on primary sources - including thousands of unpublished Crosby manuscripts held in the Billy Graham Centre at Wheaton College - Edith Blumhofer sorts fact from fiction in the life of this remarkable woman whose biographers have often cared more about inspiration than about accuracy. Blumhofer sets Crosby fully in the context of her times and responsibly limns her life as a gifted nineteenth-century northeastern Protestant woman, in the process showing why "this diminutive woman" held - and still holds - such fascinating appeal.
