Girls: Faults and Ideals - Growing up seems to get tougher for each new generation. The More advanced we become the more temptations there are to face. In Girls: Faults and Ideals Miller addresses the need for a personal relationship with Christ for girls and young women. Young Men: Faults and Ideals - A sequel to Girls Faults and Ideals giving young ladies an opportunity to show their opinion on qualities of young men. Secrets of Happy Home Life - "Home is among the holiest of words. A true home is one of the most sacred of places. It is a sanctuary into which men flee from the world's perils and alarms. It is a resting-place to which at close of day the weary retire to gather new strength for the battle and toils of tomorrow. It is the place where love learns its lessons, where life is schooled into discipline and strength, where character is molded. Out of the homes of a community comes the life of the community." James Russell Miller was a popular Christian author, Editorial Superintendent of the Presbyterian Board of Publication, and pastor of several churches in Pennsylvania and Illinois. He was the General field Agent for the United States Christian Commission, an organization established by the Young Men's Christian Association after the First Battle of Bull Run. Miller authored nearly 100 books and articles.
