Classic

I was delighted to discover these in audio format. These are 'top drawer' classics no Christian should be ignorant of. I have just finished the two-volume set (print version) after 2 years(!) and my infirm 14 year old son has just finished the audio version after 2 weeks - both print and audio versions are peerless. This Audible version thoroughly enjoyed by my son.Yes it is flowery in language but consider this - there are a tiny handful of people through the ages who have understood and communicated the gospel with as much faithfulness, clarity and success as Spurgeon. His prolific works justifiably enjoy a vast readership even today (e.g. Morning and Evening).

A worthwhile read for Christians

You will want to have already read/listened to the first part of the biography which you will have to purchase separately. I am not sure whether Spurgeon had meant to write a full autobiography before he died, and ended up dying before he managed to complete this, but most of this second book is actually written by other people, with occasional inserts of his from sermons, writings etc. not true autobiography.

I really enjoyed listening to this - I find it much more inspiring listening to stories of what God's people have managed to do through his power, than books discussing theology. Same critique as with the first book - poor publication. Check your audio people before you publish! Lots of bits where the quality is poor, or it gets stuck on a word like an old record. Otherwise very enjoyable and a real edification for a Christian.

Excellent narrator

Brilliant book and the narrator really does bring it to life, and even changes his voice and accent depending on who he's quoting.

Excellent

This 2nd half of Spurgeon's autobiography is the amazing testimony of what God can do to a man who is wholly committed to the Lord Jesus Christ. This will inspire the Lord's people to serve Him with greater faith, love and earnestness.

Spurgeon's History

Although 120 years old, the work is fresh and relevant in all aspects.
It easily spans the years. His life is still a lesson for us to learn from

A window into the past

This is a wonderful window into the past and into that fascinating time when C.H.Spurgeon was at large in the world and the Lord God was doing amazing things through His faithful servant. An excellent listen!
