Boyd B. Stutler (1889-1970) was the foremost researcher and expert on the abolitionist John Brown in the twentieth century, a legacy that still impacts scholars and researchers today. A newspaperman and wartime journalist, Stutler accumulated one of the most important archives of primary and secondary sources on Brown and was considered the expert to consult by a variety of writers and scholars in his time. This work not only presents the first edited and annotated version of his incomplete biography of Brown, but frames his work in a meticulously researched study of Stutler's life. As this study shows, Stutler was a man caught in-between social and political tendencies: he was on the cutting edge in his study of a radical abolitionist, a study that often put him in the company of African-American activists and progressive scholars; yet he was an old-school conservative who despised leftists and disdained the admiration of Brown by those he deemed "pinko." A journalist and researcher at heart, Stutler ultimately unearthed and collected a vast amount of Browniana, yet struggled over writing his own biography, never completing the work.

Duke i vënë në fokus ngjarjet historike, konfliktet, marrëdhëniet e ndërsjella dhe ndikimin që kanë pasur këto fe mbi njerëzimin, autori i librit sfidon lexuesin që të shohë përtej dogmave dhe doktrinave fetare, duke analizuar në thellësi natyrën njerëzore të këtyre feve dhe ndikimin që ato kanë pasur në historinë e njerëzimit. Me një qasje kritike, por të balancuar, ky libër synon të nxjerrë në dritë në mënyrë faktive historinë e fesë dhe ndikimit të saj në formimin e shoqërive moderne.

Un día fui a visitar una ermita de la Virgen, la de Nuestra Señora de la Huerta, y al rezarla el espíritu del Amor en mi corazón le sopló a mi Madre una espinela, una décima, estrofa de diez versos octosílabos, y pienso que le agradó mucho. Luego, un amigo, en una convivencia de verano en Valladolid me pidió que le escribiera otra décima a la Virgen del Pinarejo, Patrona de su pueblo, y lo hice con mucho gusto. Después de esto, me anime a escribir espinelas a todas las advocaciones de Nuestra Madre, con este lema: 'Ninguna Virgen sin su décima'. Así es como ha nacido este primer libro de Espinelas Marianas.Espinelas Marianas es un conjunto de oraciones a las distintas advocaciones de la Virgen María escritas en décimas, estrofas de diez versos octosílabos, cuyo motivo o fin primordial es dirigirlas a la Madre de Dios como oración, plegaria y alabanza. Espero que ningún devoto de Nuestra Señora se quede sin espinela que dirigirla porque no la hallase en este pequeño libro recopilatorio. Aún así, el piadoso lector mariano ha de tener la certeza de que su Virgencita obtendrá la décima que se merece en otro libro.
