By JOSEPH HALL, D.D., Bishop of Norwich.
Reprinted, with General Gordon’s marks, from the Original Copy used by
him, and with an Introduction on his Theology
By the Rev. H. CARRUTHERS WILSON, M.A.
“A book which was so highly prized by so romantic and heroic a
Christian as General Gordon is sure to awaken a widespread curiosity.
This edition is not only printed from his copy, but shows the passages
which he had marked for special consideration. The treatise itself is
worthy of the place it held in his esteem. Mr. Wilson’s introduction
is entirely appropriate, and we cannot but feel that the publishers
have rendered good service by including the work in their Devotional
Library.”--_Baptist Magazine._
“Hall’s treatise is in itself an excellent example of the best kind of
devotional literature, and it will contribute to its appreciation by
the modern reader that its sacred teachings and appeals formed part of
the spiritual nourishment of the English nineteenth-century hero and
saint.”--_Christian World._
