An Uncommon Christian seeks to show how and why James Brainerd Taylor (1801–1829) became a popular participant during America's Second Great Awakening, and why the Princeton graduate and Yale Seminary student grew to be a frequent example of evangelical Protestant spirituality and evangelistic passion long after his untimely death. Those interested in religious revivals, evangelism and missions, spirituality, early nineteenth-century American history, the integration of faith and action with university or seminary studies, or inspirational Christian biography will benefit from this exhaustive and long overdue book on a forgotten "hero" of the Protestant faith.

Renowned educator Arthur Levine and coauthor Jana Nidiffer explore how some people overcome the most desperate circumstances to achieve the seemingly unreachable goal of a college degree. Drawing on their own study of 24 students, the authors detail the factors--relationships, resources, and activities-- that made a difference and allowed these students to go as far as they did.
