For heartwarming tales of Christian faith and life, don't look any further than the Parables of a Country Parson. After church historian Garth Rosell discovered the inspirational short stories of William Barton, he shared them with his friends and students. The stories were so well received that Rosell teamed up with Stan Flewelling to seek out the rare original volumes and present them in this new collection for today's readers. 192 pages, softcover, Hendrickson.

William E. Barton (1861-1930) was one of the best-known American clergymen of the early twentieth century and the author of more than sixty books. His accomplishments were so many that his was the longest entry in the 1930 edition of Who's Who in America. But his most popular works were the wise and witty parables presented in this book.
Garth Rosell is professor of church history and director of the Ockenga Institute at Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary, South Hamilton, Massachusetts.
Stan Flewelling is a freelance writer who migrated to Auburn, Washington, from Oak Park, Illinois, where William E. Barton had served as pastor for twenty-five years.
