Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Our Methodist Standards and Heritage calls all Methodist back the roots of Methodist teaching as shown in the General Rules of the Methodist Societies and in the Articles of Religion that John Wesley sent to America. The book can be divided into three parts. The first two parts are for all Methodists, regardless of denomination. They cover the General Rules that governed the behavior of Methodists before the establishment of any Methodist church. These rules were actually an evangelistic tool that demonstrated our need for the grace of God. The second part explains how the Articles of Religion are an expression of basic Protestant Christian beliefs and how they still apply today. The last section begins by describing distinctive Methodist doctrines found in the Other Beliefs. Finally, Southern Methodist particulars are articulated and discussed.…

See his entry in the Oxford DNB, in which 'deep professional commitment and mental toughness' are said to be qualities whose possession he demonstrated 'heroically'. Beatty's aggressive tactics at the Battle of Jutland are often contrasted with Jellicoe's more cautious approach. After the explosion of the Indefatigable and the Queen Mary, with the loss of 1283 officers and men, he came out with the celebrated understatement, 'There seems to be something wrong with our bloody ships today'. The present item is in good condition, lightly aged, and laid down on a leaf removed from an autograph album. It is a 9.5 x 5 cm piece of paper, cut from the base of a form, with Beatty signing in red on the top line, and the following two lines written out by him in blue: 'David Beatty / Rear-Admiral / 21 June 1913.' Printed in small type at the foot: '[2726] 20002/P501 100 9/12va G & S 2032'. See image.…

Quarter Leather. Zustand: Very good. First Edition. Octavo, [5], 6-58pp. Three quarter brown morocco, marbled boards. Title stamped in gilt along the spine. Bookplate removed from front pastedown. New endpapers. Occasional light foxing throughout, toning along margins of title page. (Sabin 12696). This pamphlet was written in response to the Dearborn-Putnam controversy, a long-running historical dispute, which reignited in 1818, when General Henry Dearborn published an account of the Battle of Bunker Hill alleging that Major General Israel Putnam had shown indecision and cowardice by failing to assume effective command during the engagement. Dearborn's charges directly challenged the Revolutionary War heroism long attributed to Putnam and provoked an intense regional backlash, particularly in Connecticut, where Putnam was venerated. The controversy unfolded through a series of pamphlets, newspaper editorials, and public statements defending or attacking Putnam's conduct. Historians have since viewed the episode as an instructive example of the politicization of Revolutionary War reputations in the early republic, reflecting the tension between emerging historical inquiry and entrenched patriotic legend.
