This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

Johann Michael Reu was born at Diebach, in Bavaria, Germany. His father died when Reu was only two years old.
Reu studied from 1887-1889 at the nearby Neuendettelsau Mission Institute (Neuendettelsauer Missionsgesellschaft) which had been founded by Wilhelm Loehe in 1841.
He was the youngest of ten children. He was ordained a Lutheran minister at age 20 and emigrated to the United States where he first served as an assistant pastor in Mendota, Illinois. In 1899, he joined the faculty of Wartburg Theological Seminary in Dubuque, Iowa, where he taught until his death in 1943.
In 1902, Reu became an American citizen.
Reu was awarded a Doctorate in Theology from the University of Erlangen-Nuremberg in 1910. Reu also received an honorary Doctorate of Literature from Capital University in Columbus, Ohio in 1926.
Reu was a prolific author of 66 books, covering nearly all topics in Christian life, as well as more than 3000 published book reviews. The archives of Wartburg Theological Seminary contain the papers, correspondence, sermons, and writings of J. Michael Reu, professor of Wartburg Seminary, 1899-1943.
