Hardcover. Zustand: Fair. An uncommon edition of an important title, a reprint of a classic work of Christian apology from an esteemed Christian apologist. "All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out" (from the first chapter). The title page continues "VI, 37. shewing the cause, truth and manner of the coming of a sinner to Jesus Christ; with his happy reception, and blessed entertainment, to which is added The One Thing Needful; or, serious meditations on the four last things, Death, Judgment, Heaven, and Hell." Bound in calf leather over boards in 12mo format, three raised bands, moderate rubbing to tips, edges, chipping to spine, rear panel at/near spine. Still distinct dentelles along edges front and rear. Previous owner's fine inked inscription at first free endpaper, dated to August 17, 1799, being "J. Keddy." Measures 6" x 3 1/2" tall and wide, respectively. Moderately toned of interior, torn final paste-down, else clean and unmarked of interior, easy enough to read. John Bunyan (1628 ? 1688) was an English writer and Puritan preacher who is well known for his writing of the Christian allegory known as The Pilgrim's Progress, but also another 60 titles, allegedly, most of which were also expanded sermons. This title was first published in 1678. Perhaps the locale of publication was not London, but rather, York, which is rendered in smaller font and is italicized. The paper's chain lines are vertical. Philip Gaskell says that "eighteenth-century printers sometimes used half-sheets of double-sized paper, rather than single sheets of ordinary size" and that in books made from these half-sheets "the chain lines appear to run the wrong way," that is, vertically rather than the normal horizontal orientation (A New Introduction to Bibliography, pp. 64-5). Frontis matter, 4-213 pp.Member, I.O.B.A., C.B.A., and adherent to the highest ethical standards. Additional postage may be required for oversize or especially heavy volumes, and for sets.…

The seven letters total 23pp, 12mo. In good condition, on lightly-aged paper. The third letter, written from Hickleton on 7 January 1907, is in a secretarial hand, Halifax being 'laid up with Influenza' and 'utterly good for nothing'; it carries an autograph postscript by Russell at the head of the first page. The first letter (14 July 1900) invites Russell to fill the 'vacancy on the list of Clerical members of our E.C.U. Council'; Russell's acceptance is acknowledged in the second, which also discusses charges of 'disloyalty'. The third letter (7 January 1907) refers to 'the battle [.] on the Education question', which has 'only just begun [.] I think we want to construct a policy for ourselves, & if possible, carry the war into the enemy's country'. A week later, Halifax discusses a conference in Manchester, which he would like to attend, despite not feeling 'up to speaking at a public meeting'. The letter includes a two-page statement concerning Halifax's position on 'Undenominationalism' ('as ever the enemy'). Halifax has written to the Bishop of Manchester on the subject of education, and feels that 'we ought for one thing to insist that those who want Cowper Temple teaching should pay for it - just as it now seems to be admitted by every one that denominationalists have to pay for their own denominational teaching'. Halifax asks for Russell's and Canon Cleworth's views on the question, and the next two letters concern an attempt to arrange a meeting to discuss it, with reference to 'good' resolutions in Convocation. In the last letter (19 January 1908) Halifax states that he has been talking to 'Mr Hall' about 'the matter in question', and that, while 'he could not of course pledge the Union to any constitution [.] he feels - as much as I do - and as you express in your letter, how entirely the object is one which the Union ought to help'.…
