The Correspondence of John Owen (1616-1683): With an Account of His Life and Work

Until recent months it has been taken for granted that few, if any, of the letters of the great nonconformist leader existed. Mr. Toon has discovered more than one hundred original letters, hitherto unknown–including original correspondence with Oliver Cromwell–which are here reprinted for the first time, with a scholarly introduction. This is an important piece of historical research; it should be essential reading for all students of the Commonwealth, period.
