Leopold is delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. The aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature, and our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. The contents of the vast majority of titles in the Classic Library have been scanned from the original works. To ensure a high quality product, each title has been meticulously hand curated by our staff. This means that we have checked every single page in every title, making it highly unlikely that any material imperfections – such as poor picture quality, blurred or missing text - remain. When our staff observed such imperfections in the original work, these have either been repaired, or the title has been excluded from the Leopold Classic Library catalogue.

Caleb Sprague Henry was an American clergyman, educator, and writer. He was professor of intellectual and moral philosophy, belles-lettres and history at New York University from 1838 to 1852.
Background
Caleb Henry was born on August 2, 1804, in Rutland, Massachusetts, United States. He was the son of Silas and Phebe (Pierce) Henry. He was a descendant of Robert Henry who was a native of Scotland and came to America from Ireland in 1718.
Education
Caleb graduated from Dartmouth College with the degree of Bachelor of Arts in 1825, studied theology at Andover, Massachusetts, and at New Haven, and was ordained to the Congregational ministry on January 1, 1829.
Career
Caleb Henry was pastor of Congregational churches in Greenfield, Massachusetts, 1829-1831, and West Hartford, Connecticut, 1833-1835. Transferring his allegiance to the Protestant Episcopal Church, he was ordained deacon in that communion in 1835 and priest in 1836. The remainder of his active life was largely devoted to literary and educational pursuits. He was professor of intellectual and moral philosophy at Bristol College, Pennsylvania, from 1835 to 1838. In the latter year he was appointed professor of the same subjects at the University of the City of New York, now New York University, holding that chair until 1852. Soon instruction in belles-lettres and history were added to his duties, so that from 1840 to 1852 he bore the formidable title of “Professor of Intellectual and Moral Philosophy, Belles-Lettres and History. ” That he was able to bear up under this heavy load is evidenced by the fact that he occupied, in addition, the position of rector of St. Clement’s Church in New York City from 1847 to 1850.
After 1852, except from 1870 to 1873, when Henry was rector of St. Michael’s Church, Litchfield, Connecticut, he held no official position, but devoted himself to literary work. A stanch churchman, he was a constant contributor on theological subjects to religious and secular periodicals. In 1847 he was appointed editor of the Churchman and conducted that organ of the Protestant Episcopal Church until 1850. He also served for several years as political editor of the New York Times. His wide range of intellectual interests is further evidenced by voluminous publications in book, pamphlet, and periodical form. He published Victor Cousin’s Elements of Psychology translated from the French, with introduction and notes, in 1834, a book which ran through four editions. He also edited W. Hazlitt’s translation of Guizot’s General History of Civilisation in Europe (1842) and translated Bautain’s Epitome of the History of Philosophy (2 vols. , 1841) which he brought down to date. Dr. Oldham at Greystones and His Talk There (1860) was followed by the more substantial work Considerations on Some of the Elements and Conditions of Social Welfare and Human Progress (1861), and that by Satan as a Moral Philosopher (1877). He also wrote About Men and Things (1873), and “History of the United States of America, ” in W. C. Taylor’s Manual of Ancient and Modern History (1845).
