About This Item

London: Printed for J. F. and C. Rivington, 1788. 28pp. Stitched, as issued. Lightly spotted. A vitriolic pamphlet, first printed in 1774, by Church of England clergyman and religious controversialist William Jones (1726-1800) disapproving of Socinianism. A tireless adversary of popular evangelicalism generally and Unitarians specifically, Jones here claims that: 'The change from Christianity to Socinianism is as little to be envied as the transmigration of those who should leave the scenery of Paradise and the plenty of Canaan, to associate with the savages of the South on a weather-beaten Rock in the Magellanic Ocean.' ESTC T119600.. Fourth edition, with corrections and additions. 12mo.

Terms of Sale

Antiquates Ltd

Antiquates Ltd was established by Tom Lintern-Mole in 2007; we travel far and wide to buy, sell, and advise on rare books and manuscripts.

Concentrating on hand-press printing and early modern manuscripts, we pride ourselves on offering a varied selection of antiquarian works on a diverse range of subjects, leaning towards the interesting, the important, and the unusual.

We have a countryside bookshop in Wareham; we also regularly issue catalogues - do ask if you would like to be added to our mailing list - and frequently exhibit at regional and national book fairs in London, Bristol, Cambridge, Edinburgh, Oxford, and York.

We also offer a valuation service (for either insurance or probate purposes), as well as advice on library development.
