THE LIFE AND TIMES
OF THE
REV. JOHN WESLEY, M.A.
BY THE REV. L. TYERMAN.
"It deserves the praise, not only of being the fullest biography ofWesley, but also of being eminently painstaking, veracious, and trustworthy."—TheEdinburgh Review.
"Mr. Tyerman's volumes constitute by far the most exhaustive, as theyare certainly the bulkiest, and from many points of view the most interesting,of the lives of Wesley. Mr. Tyerman's judgment is usually characterisedby great clearness and good sense; his pen seems to be alwaysgoverned by the desire to be fair and impartial, and for the first time ourlibraries receive a full and comprehensive memoir of the great religiousteacher and ecclesiastical statesman."—The British Quarterly Review.
"The most copious account of the great evangelist's life and labours,and the noblest literary tribute to his memory, which has yet been offeredto the world."—Methodist Recorder.
"The narratives of travel through England, Scotland, and Ireland, therecords of evangelistic labour, the gradual building up of Wesleyanism asa system, form a history of great interest, and allure the reader on fromchapter to chapter, with all the attraction of a romance. We cannot doubtthat Mr. Tyerman's work, so rich and abundant in materials, will henceforthbe regarded as the standard life of Wesley."—The EvangelicalMagazine.
"We are thankful for a new and carefully revised edition of this verylaborious, interesting, and important work, the value of which is great andobvious. The portraits as now rendered, are very striking and self-evidencing,and of real historical value."—Wesleyan Methodist Magazine.
"This is the most truthful, full, accurate, and painstaking of all thelives of Wesley."—The Methodist.
