I am over 60 and can read it well. However, it is not crisp. I think it is an 8 or 10 font size. Hope this helps.

I have just submitted a review (with two pictures), but it may take a while for them to get onto the site. The font size appears to be about a 10 point font, which is rather small. As I have mentioned in my review, the small font size is only one of the problems with this set. There are blotches where the letters are running together (like on an old ribbon typewriter), or blank patches where part of the letters are missing.

I am 58 wearing trifocals and I can read it ok the scripture is a little smaller as you can see in the pdf. The page size is 7"x5". The contrast of black over white is good.

Question

Is this genuine spurgeon or edited?

Is this the original Spurgeon, or is it an anemic, edited version devoid of both his theology and rhetoric? For example, Whitaker Publishing (I realize this is Hendrickson) is notorious on gutting Spurgeon of his theology. I don't want a version that revises it into more readable American prose (e.g., "dumbing down").

answer 1

I am sorry to hear that anyone would water down Spurgeon's messages but such is the world... they have also made A.W. Pink's works very anemic I hear. These are the original as far as I can tell...

answer 2

The theology has NOT been gutted. In fact, my husband and I read the books to inspire us after getting what we have now termed "culturist" preaching from our church pulpit! Wonderful, funny, practical, and serious lessons from Scripture. The books do use the old English.
