Man of Faith by Henry A. Smith is a biography that all who knew or heard the name of this Apostle of the Lord will want to read and reread.

In this book the author has incorporated many of the human interest stories and humorous tales that reveal the great human qualities of this leader of men. Culled from the letters of friends and acquaintances, from conversations with relatives and associates, and from Matthew Cowley's own letters and addresses, the dramatic quality of life stands out in bold relief against the background of service which keynoted his life.

The sweep of his travels over the earth's surface strikes the reader with tremendous force: from Salt Lake City to New Zealand, to Washington, D.C., to China, Hawaii, Japan, the Philippines, Samoa, Australia, and many other fardistant places. In all these areas Matthew Cowley won friends, not only for himself but also for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latterday Saints which he represented so ably. And in all these countries he was himself, the wise and witty, the studious and sincere, the gay and friendly Matthew Cowley, whose life and work did so much to lift men to the heights.

Matthew Cowley — Man of Faith is a book that will stir its readers to a new consciousness of how life can and should be lived.
