An Apology for the True Christian Divinity: Being an Explanation and Vindication of the Principles and Doctrines of the People Called Quakers Ninth Edition

Robert Barclay

Verlag: Robert Napper, Dublin, 1800

The ninth edition of this work on Christianity and Quakers. Robert Barclay (1648-1690) was a member of the Society of Friends and governer of East Jersey through most of the 1880's. He was a supporter of George Fox and friends with William Penn but also enjoyed favour at the Court of James II. This book, defending his faith was read widely. Barclay was an intelligent and knowledgeable theologian and this work became one of the more prominent Quaker texts. In a full calf binding. Externally, there is some wear to the extremities including scuffing, fraying, marks to the boards, bumping to the corners and it lacks titles. The binding of the text block is tight and firm, with the rear board attached by the cords although the spine has split, and the front board has detached completely. Internally the pages are generally clean and bright with the occasional brown spot or handling mark. With some minor binding work this volume could be a quite respectable copy. Good Only.
