Excellent notes on Robert Peel

This is quite a book (Mary Baker Eddy by Gillian Gill) we are reading this month!  We have neglected a treasure, I feel.

I went in search of the beginning of the notes and opened on a page and a half about Robert Peel. Excellent.

It is in the Appendix under The Essential Published Source Books. Page 581*.

Ed: * Gill writes: "No biographer in the history of Christian Science has known the archival materials at The Mother Church as well as Robert Peel did, and no one has read them more closely or more astutely... Peel's massive three-volume work--Mary Baker Eddy: Years of Discovery (1966), Years of Trial (1971), Years of Authority (1977)--was first published by Holt, Rinehart and Winston and later by the Christian Science Publishing Society."

Note that all three Peel biographies are now available online to subscribers of jsh-online.com
