Henry Drummond FRSE FGS (17 August 1851 – 11 March 1897) was a Scottish evangelist, biologist, writer and lecturer.
Many of his writings were too adapted to the needs of his own day to justify the expectation that they would long survive it.[1] His sermon "The Greatest Thing in the World" remains popular in Christian circles.
