A Man In Earnest: Life Of A. H. Conant (1868) is a biography written by Robert Collyer. The book tells the story of Alpheus Hyatt Conant, a prominent American Unitarian minister and social reformer of the 19th century. Conant was known for his passionate commitment to social justice and his tireless efforts to improve the lives of the poor and marginalized. The book provides a detailed account of Conant’s life, from his early years as a student at Harvard Divinity School to his later work as a minister and activist in Boston and New York. It explores his involvement in various social reform movements, including the abolition of slavery, women’s suffrage, and temperance. The book also delves into Conant’s personal life, including his marriage to the writer and activist Lydia Maria Child. Overall, A Man In Earnest offers a fascinating glimpse into the life of one of the most influential social reformers of his time.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
