VERY NICE INDEX IN BACK. FOR THE FOLLOWERS, LOVERS OOF CHRISTIANITY AND RELIGIOUS MOVEMENTS. Francis Edward Clark (12 September 1851 - 26 May 1927) was an American clergyman. Clark was born of New England ancestry in Aylmer, Quebec, Canada.[1] He was the son of Charles C. Symmes, but took the name of an uncle, the Rev. E.W. Clark, by whom he was adopted after his father's death in 1853. He graduated from Dartmouth College in 1873 and from Andover Theological Seminary in 1876, was ordained in the Congregational ministry, and was pastor of the Williston West Church at Portland, Maine, from 1876 to 1883, and of the Phillips Congregational church, South Boston, Massachusetts, from 1883 to 1887.[2] On 2 February 1881, he founded in Portland, the Young People's Society of Christian Endeavor, which, beginning as a small society in a single New England church, developed into a great interdenominational organization, which in 1908 had 70,761 societies and more than 3,500,000 members scattered throughout the United States, Canada, Mexico, Great Britain, Australia, South Africa, India, Japan and China. After 1887, he devoted his time entirely to the extension of this work, and was president of the United Societies of Christian Endeavor and of the World's Christian Endeavor Union, and editor of the Christian Endeavor World (originally The Golden Rule). The Young People's Society of Christian Endeavor was founded in Portland, Maine, in 1881 by Francis Edward Clark, as an interdenominational Christian youth society encouraging them to "work together to know God in Jesus Christ". Operating internationally as World's Christian Endeavor Union, the society's professed objective is "to promote an earnest Christian life among its members, to increase their mutual acquaintanceship, and to make them more useful in the service of God."

Hardcover. Condizione: Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. Brown cloth covers with gilt at front and spine.This volume describes the last six weeks of a long journey undertaken in the interests of the Young People's Society of Christian Endeavor. Interest is perhaps added to this journey from the fact that we were the first Americans, and in all probability the first foreigners, to go around the world by the new route. The trans- Siberian all-steam route had been opened for a few days when we took passage to Vladivostock. The book has tanning and foxing throughout, the covers chow rubbing and wear at the extremities and something has been removed from inside the front cover leaving some damage. . **.

Condizione: Near Fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very Good. ART NOUVEAU DEVOTIONAL IN ORIGINAL GIFT BOX An attractively preserved late Victorian devotional designed for daily reflection and personal religious practice within the Christian Endeavor movement. Issued in a striking Art Nouveau binding and retained in its original decorated gift box, the volume combines devotional readings, poetry, scripture, moral reflection, and calendar-style birthday record spaces into a refined presentation format intended for both private meditation and gift giving. The decorative binding presents flowing stylized floral stems and tulip forms in dark green and gilt against light green buckram, reflecting the influence of late 19th-century Art Nouveau ornament and gift-book design. Internally, the work includes twelve plates, devotional selections arranged by calendar date, and quotations from religious writers, poets, and moral reform figures. The combination of attractive design, institutional Christian Endeavor association, and surviving box gives the volume notable crossover appeal beyond standard religious material.

Gilt spine and cover titles. Housed in the original decorated publisher's gift box. Octavo. Pagination: x, [2], 2-373 pages including index.

A notably superior survival for a boxed devotional volume of this period. SCARCITY NOTE: OCLC/WorldCat records approximately 13 institutional holdings. The title appears infrequently in the trade, particularly in the original publisher's gift box. HISTORICAL SIGNIFICANCE - Rev. Francis E.
