About This Item
Evesham: Printed for the Author by J. Agg: Sold by Bulgin and Shephard..., Bristol..., 1799. 12mo (in 6s), 172 x 95 mms., pp. xviii, 19 - 339 [340 Contents], contemporary tree calf, gilt spine black leather label; binding a little rubbed but a very good to fine copy. Thomas Tregenna Biddulph (1763 - 1838) wrote a number of religious works, but this was his first book, published in 1798. He was a fervent Calvinist and a leader of the evangelical movement in the west of England. The obituary notice for him in The Christian Guardian for 1838 said of this work, "his Essays on the liturgy stand deservedly high, even by the admission of adverse criticism." ESTC T85432 locates copies in BL, Durham; Notre Dame. This is a reissue of the second edition with the title-page reset.
