Product Description

William Jackson bestows a rich collection that presents the depth of American generosity. Drawing upon an abundant variety of genres - myths, proverbs, poems, letters, short stories, news stories, folktales, sermons, and essays - this interesting and useful collection documents the religious dimensions of American philanthropy. "The Wisdom of Generosity" not only chronicles the manifestations of philanthropy, but also reveals philanthropy's integral connection with American history and how Americans are still striving to fulfil their original promises. This Reader offers classic yet fresh resources for reflecting on the heritage of American giving.
