Sobre este artículo
London: Printed by J. James, for R. S. and sold by Charles Rivington..., 1715. FIRST EDITION. 8vo, pp. xxxi [xxxii blank], 267 [268], 55 [56 - 59 text, 60 - 62 adverts, recent quarter calf, morocco label, marbled boards; no portrait. Nelson is best-known for his active membership in the Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge (founded 1698) and the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel (1701), and generally for his religious writings. However, this book, published in the year of his death, illustrates the practical application of his Christian beliefs, with schemes for the relief of the poor, for education, for the formation of libraries, for the erection of charity schools, and for other social welfare projects, many of which were subsequently brought into being.
