About the author

Born in Wheeling, West Virginia, in 1863, Daniel Dulany Addison became an Episcopal clergyman and author whose career joined parish ministry with a steady stream of writing. He studied at Union College and the Episcopal Theological School in Cambridge, then went on to serve churches in Massachusetts.

Addison was connected with St. Peter's Church in Beverly, the Church of the Messiah in Boston, and later All Saints Church in Brookline. Alongside his ministry, he wrote widely on religion and history, including books about clergy, the Episcopal Church, and notable figures from church life.

He died in 1936, leaving behind the record of a long literary and religious career. For listeners interested in reflective nonfiction from the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, his work offers a clear window into American Protestant thought and culture of the period.
