From the Pulpit to the Palm Branch - A Memorial of C.H. Spurgeon (1892)

Passsmore & Alabaster was Spurgeon’s de facto publisher beginning in the mid-1850’s—partly due to the fact that Joseph Passmore was a deacon in Spurgeon’s church. As a result, the books they printed are, by majority, the most desirable of all of C.H.’s publications over the years; much of what they printed was highly influenced by the wishes and encouragements of C.H. in particular.

This biographical printing was printed as a sequel to From the Usher’s Desk to the Tabernacle Pulpit by Passmore & Alabaster, which was printed almost immediately after their beloved friend passed away in Mentone, France. This volume covers from when Spurgeon left his pulpit in London until he died in Mentone, continuing through his funeral and burial back in the UK; it could be considered the book with some of the most details about his last days and all the events following, bringing great perspective to how much Spurgeon meant to such a broad array of people around the world.

A must have for any true Spurgeon collector.
