A Short Life of Jonathan Edwards
I’m going to preempt our resident Jonathan Edwards scholar and announce George Marsden’s new, shorter biography of Jonathan Edwards. Marsden, having already written what is perhaps the greatest Edwards biography, has written an entirely new work based on his research. This should prove to be a great introduction to this immense figure in American Christianity.

Yes, this looks like an interesting book, especially since it is not merely a condensation of his previous work.
Sorry Camden!
I should have noted who posted the Edwards piece before commenting.
Unfortunately I do not have a copy of this book at present to be able to say anything of substance.
