Truett Broadman Publishes Truett Biography could appraise Truett’s person ality, his methods, and his min istry as a whole from the viewpoint of another minister. He knew the forces behind the i power of Dr. Truett’s person- V ality and preaching and he adds I the flavor of interest as he tells the gripping story of Truett’s life.
