Sobre este artículo
London: Printed for J. Buckland et al., 1780. vi, [1], 8-132pp. Later calf, morocco lettering-piece, gilt. Very slight rubbing to extremities. Very occasional pen-trials to margins, spotted The revised and enlarged edition of the first published work of John Ralling, of whom little is known. First printed in 1775, the book, as the editor George Wright makes clear, demonstrates the 'evangelical Truths and Doctrines of the everlasting Gospel, which are able to make us wise unto Salvation, in a plain, but faithful, practical, and instructive Manner'. We are told that the 'pious Author' is 'only a Lady’s coachman...desirous of telling others what God has done for his soul'. ESTC records a single copy of this second edition in the British Isles (BL), and one further in North America (Emory). A single copy of the first edition is known (BL). ESTC T82654. Second edition. 12mo.
