Finney], special attention given to female preachers and the involvement and effects of the holiness movement on "ministers' wives," reports of Phoebe's Tuesday Meetings for the Promotion of Holiness, etc,. etc. Some attention also given to reconstruction and racial reconciliation [especially the spiritual element]. The Guide to Holiness had long been abolitionist, was strongly associated with Oberlin which had strongly advocated civil disobedience with relation to slavery, etc.,  Now very scarce on the market.  Palmer, W.
