Memoriam: H.G. Brown, by Will Lissner, American
Journal of Economics and Sociology
- 1975 - Remembrance and assessment of Prof.
Brown by Dean Pinkney Walker (University of Missouri):
"Dr. Brown was first and
foremost a teacher. His teaching always came first, with his
writing seconary. ...Not only was teaching where his heart was;
it was also that at which he excelled. A thorough knowledge of
his subject, and excellent speaker, masterful logician, amost
effective and skillful debater, unbounded enthusiasm, and a deep
concern for and dedication to improve 'the common welfare' --
all this and a kind warm heart, a twinkle in his eye and a half
smile -- all this was Harry Gunnison Brown."
