Spurgeon was deeply influenced by Puritan writings, and especially Thomas Manton. Spurgeon praised Manton for his clear and sound exposition of Scripture. In Flowers from a Puritan's Garden, Spurgeon acknowledges his indebtedness to his spiritual heritage in the Puritan. This book contains excerpts from Puritan's writings, along with reflections and commentary from Spurgeon himself. This is wonderful companion to daily Bible reading as a devotional.
