About the Author
Charles Haddon Spurgeon, 1834 - 1892 Charles Spurgeon was born in Kelvedon, Essex in June 19, 1834. His father and his grandfather were both pastors and at the age of twenty, he became the pastor of the famous New Park Street Church in London. The congregation quickly grew out of the building and moved to Exeter Hall where he frequently preached to audiences of over 10,000 people. In 1861, the congregation moved to newly constructed Metropolitan Tabernacle, which was the largest indoor congregation ever reached with human voice up to that time in history. The Tabernacle was able to accommodate up to 6,000 people. The New Park Street and the Metropolitan Tabernacle Pulpits, where Spurgeon preached, collected his sermons during his ministry, and they filled 63 volumes with 20-25 million words in them. His series stands as the largest set of books by a single author in the history of Christianity. His own personal library contained over 12,000 volumes. Spurgeon also became known to a wider audience with the publication of "Ploughman's Talk" in 1869 and "The Treasury of David." During Spurgeon's last years, he suffered severe physical pain from a gout attack. He was growing increasing ill and on January 31, 1892, Charles Haddon Spurgeon died.
