Abstract

The storyline in this review of Spring Arbor’s history across its various academic permutations reflects “a long obedience in the same direction.” Reciting the story is important in setting the trajectory for the future. This volume is a revision and an expansion of the author’s earlier 100 Years at Spring Arbor, published in the school’s centenary year, 1973. The book documents the influence of a long line of leaders in forming and maintaining the school’s mission. The considerable space given to public statements by Spring Arbor’s leaders across 134 years of history reveals a remarkable consistency of vision and commitment. --Gerald E. Bates, 28th President of Spring Arbor University
