Charles Hodge
Most scholars of Reformed orthodoxy devote little attention to the nineteenth century, and most students of nineteenth century Reformed thought bypass the influence of Reformed orthodox ideas on their subjects. Aligning himself with Reformed theology in nineteenth century America, Charles Hodge's writings are an ideal place to bring such studies together.

McGraw traces the development of Hodge's ideas with an eye both to Reformed orthodoxy and to American thought.
The Most Talked about Man in Watertown
He was a builder, contractor, mason, stonecutter, and bricklayer. He was an employer and businessman, though not an industrialist or manufacturer. He was not a contemplative man, but rather a man of action. He was also a man of firm convictions -- some would call him strong-willed and obstinate. A newspaper article published a few years before his death called him the most talked about man in Watertown. His name was Henry Hodge.
