Summary "The World's Great Sermons, Volume 08: Talmage to Knox Little" by Grenville Kleiser is a collection of significant sermons written in the late 19th century. This volume includes works from influential preachers such as Thomas De Witt Talmage and Charles Haddon Spurgeon, exploring themes of morality, faith, and the human condition through powerful oratory. The book serves as a testament to the art of preaching, aiming to inspire readers and listeners alike. The opening of this collection introduces the first sermon by Thomas De Witt Talmage, titled "A Bloody Monster." Talmage passionately addresses the destructive consequences of alcohol consumption, likening its effects to a beast that ravages families and society. He utilizes vivid imagery to convey the devastation wrought by addiction, presenting striking contrasts between happy homes and those torn apart by vice. Talmage's rhetoric is characterized by emotional appeals and dramatic language, seeking to mobilize listeners against the evils of intemperance while emphasizing the need for moral education and the cultivation of virtuous values in future generations.
