"Charles Hodge (1797-1878) is regarded by many as the most significant American theologian of the nineteenth century. He drove forward the rapid growth of theological education and contributed to Presbyterianism's wide-ranging influence in public life.

Hodge helped to define a distinctive ministerial modelthe pastor-scholar and his fingerprints can be seen all over the Reformed Christian scene of today" -- Publisher description.
