EDWARD HITCHCOCK was not the only star in the firmament of American science and philosophy in the nineteenth century, but he was certainly one of the brightest. Raised among the wheat and rye fields of Deerfield, Massachusetts, he was expected to pursue a farmer's life, but early on he developed a "strong relish" for science. In his teens he adopted his father's orthodox Christian faith and began studying for the ministry. By age twenty-five he had set a dual path for his life, science and religion. Although Hitchcock's career as a pastor would be brief, preaching and spreading the Gospel ...

I recently came upon an old book entitled Famous Men in Science by Sarah Knowles Bolton that was first published in 1889. In her enjoyable and easy to read text, Bolton provides a glimpse of 14 distinguished thinkers, ranging from such luminaries as Carl Linnaeus to Louis Agassiz.

"The walls of churning foamy water hitting the Robert D. were relentless and we knew we were going down at any moment. No ship could survive the hours of horrendous pounding we were receiving from the glacial, gray, South Pacific. The next wave smashed into us with the force of a runaway locomotive; submerging the pilothouse in its travels. The Robert D. listed to port twenty, thirty, forty, and then fifty degrees. The design limit of this tub was forty-two degrees and by all design calculations she would capsize; all on board knew they were dead." This story is 100% true as I remember it, ...
