Hebrew Life and Times

About the author
Born in 1879 and later known as Rev. Harold Bruce Hunting, he wrote religious and educational books for general readers, including Hebrew Life and Times, The Story of Our Bible: How It Grew to Be What It Is, and Pioneers of Goodwill. Listings from library and public-domain sources show that his work centered on biblical history, Christian instruction, and missionary themes.
His books suggest a writer who was interested in explaining faith and scripture in a straightforward way rather than writing for specialists alone. Hebrew Life and Times, for example, presents the everyday world of the Hebrew people for students and curious readers, while The Story of Our Bible focuses on how the Bible took shape over time.
Available records identify him as a minister and give his lifespan as 1879 to 1958. While detailed biographical information appears to be limited online, the surviving catalog entries and digitized editions of his books show a steady commitment to teaching religion through clear, reader-friendly prose.
