Father Taylor is a biographical novel written by Robert Collyer and first published in 1906. The book tells the story of the life of Reverend Edward Thompson Taylor, a Methodist minister who became famous for his work with sailors and the poor in Boston during the mid-19th century. The novel is divided into two parts. The first part focuses on Taylor's early life, including his upbringing in a poor family in England, his struggles with alcoholism, and his eventual conversion to Methodism. The second part of the book details Taylor's work in Boston, where he became known as the Sailors' Preacher for his efforts to provide spiritual and material support to sailors and their families.Throughout the book, Collyer portrays Taylor as a charismatic and compassionate figure who was deeply committed to his faith and to helping those in need. The novel also explores the social and economic conditions of Boston during the mid-19th century, including the challenges faced by sailors and the urban poor.Overall, Father Taylor is a compelling and inspiring portrait of a remarkable man who dedicated his life to serving others.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
