Description:
London: Printed for the Author..., 1696. FIRST EDITION. 4to, pp. 32, disbound. Stephens treats deism as a well-established principle and a pernicious influence on true Christian doctrine.

Description:
London: Printed for T. Cox..., 1742. FIRST AND ONLY EDITION. 8vo, lxxxiv, 175 [176 blank], later half calf, marled boards, no label. A good copy. . Warburton's Divine Legation of Moses (1738 - 1741) provoked a large number of responses, usually unfavourable from clerics who thought his argument that in the ancient Hebraic world, a "life after death" was not invoked as a mandate for virtuous living. Morgan, a deist, makes a number of ironic compliments to Warburton but more-or-less argues that he doesn't take his argument to its logical conclusion.

Description:
London Printed for T. Cox..., 1742. FIRST AND ONLY EDITION. 8vo, 195 x 120 mms., pp.lxxxiv, 175 [176 blank], recently rebound in half plum calf, marbled boards; text water-stained at margins at beginning and end of text, no label on spine, but a good copy. "While commonly regarded as just another deist Morgan's originality lay in his application of the tools of historical criticism to scripture and to the history of religions. In the various controversies in which he was engaged he showed a keen intelligence and an enviable ability to turn the arguments of his opponents against them" (Peter Harrison in Oxford DNB). Warburton ostensibly took no notice of Morgan's book, and when Morgan the year after his Brief Examination was published, Warburton wrote to the clergyman Thomas Birch to say, "I live in peace, now that the redoubtable Dr. Morgan is dead." Warburton, who edited Alexander Pope's works for a collected edition in 1751, seems to have persuaded Pope to… Read More

Description:
London: Printed for John Osborn and Tho. Longman..., 1726. FIRST EDITION. 8vo, pp. xxxi [xxxii Contents], 488 [489 Errata, 490 adverts], slightly later 18th century panelled calf, morocco label; corners a little worn, but a very good copy. With the 20th century Ex Libris bookplate of John Raymond Capper on the recto of the front free end-paper and "Levenside" in an18th century hand on the front paste-down end-paper, possibly Levenside House near Dumbarton. The Trinitarian Controversy alluded to on the title-page had its most emphatic statement in the 18th century in Samuel Clarke's Scripture Doctrine of the Trinity, published in 1712. Morgan regards the concept of the trinity as unsubstantiated in the gospel and injurious to true religious principles. In this volume, he prints various "letters" to other authors engaged in the controversy, including John Cumming, Richard Blackmore, and Daniel Waterland. Another issue of this work in 1726 adds the names of S. Candler and… Read More

Description:
London: Printed by Samuel Palmer...And Sold by B. Lintot..., 1726. 4to, pp. 219 [220 blank, 221 - 231 Index, 232 blank], engraved vignette of printer on title-page, 5 engraved head- and tail-pieces, contemporary speckled calf; front cover scored, top and base of front joint cracked. This is probably the fourth "edition" of this work, though the pagination and registration is the same as that of the 1725 printing. The work was first published in a "few copies" in 1722 and reprinted in 1724. Benjamin Franklin is generally agreed to have been compositor on the 1725 printing, but it is unlikely that he worked on this 1726 printing.

Description:
London: Printed for W. Innys [Part I]; Printed for Cornelius Crownfield and John Crownfield [Part II]; Printed for John Crownfield [Part III.]..., 1730, 1731, 1732. FIRST EDITION of all three parts. 8vo, 198 x 119 mms., pp. [iv], 96 [last page misnumbered 94]; [iv], 160; [iv], 123 [124 adverts], original boards, handwritten label in ink on spine, armorial bookplate of W. Wynne on front paste-down end-paper; binding a little soiled, but a very good copy. Wynne is probably William Wynn[e] (1709 - 1760), the Church of England Clergyman and Welsh-language poet, as the wording on the armorial book plate is in Welsh: "Ne bydd doeth Na Ddarllenno." The motto on the Cardiff Free Library is similar: "'Ni bydd doeth ni ddarlleno" (he who does not read will not be wise). Daniel Waterland (1683 - 1740) was one of many theologians and clerics who published a reply to Matthew Tindal's Christianity as Old as the Creation (1730). His argument that the Scriptures were represented… Read More

Rivington..., 1799. 12mo, pp. [iv], 144. 2 volumes in 1, bound in contemporary calf; spine worn, slight wear to joints and corners. The Irish clergyman Charles Leslie (1650 - 1722) was named for the martyred king, Charles I, and he was, not surprisingly, a zealous opponent of Roman Catholicism. A Short and Easy Method with the Deists was first published in 1694 and had reached a total of 29 editions by the end of the 18th century, and The Truth of Christianity Demonstrated appeared in 1710. His disapproval of Roman Catholics was complemented by an equal hostility to Jews and Quakers. Mark Noble, in his… Read More

Description:
London: Printed for J. Noon..., 1731. FIRST EDITION. 8vo, pp. viii, 356, contemporary calf, cover borders ruled in bland, raised bands between gilt rules; lower front joint slightly cracked, top and base of spine very slightly chipped, corners slightly worn, but a very good copy. Foster's "answer" to Tindal's book was one of the best and most famous of the many attacks and replies that Christianity as Old as the Creation attracted; but in many ways Foster's argument is very close to Tindal's and accepts many deistic principles.
