Holder writes in the Preface: "In this present volume I have not attempted an elaborate analysis of his life and its effect upon the scientific world, but rather a brief history of its salient features, an impression of the good he accomplished, hoping that younger readers, as well as those of mature years, may be tempted to emulate the lesson his life presents."
