Produktbeschreibung

In nearly a half-century of missionary work brothers John and Charles Wesley found the southwestern county of Cornwall to be among their most serious theological and social challenges. This book considers the mission through a close reading of the Wesleys writings, and covers the overall history of 18th-century British Methodism and its contribution to the religious and social history of the British Empire.
