Summary:

Annotated and critical edition of the letters of one of Methodism's most influential founders, Dr. Thomas Coke, For forty years on either side of the death of John Wesley in 1791, Thomas Coke was a key figure in the development of Methodism on both sides of the Atlantic. His surviving correspondence is the most personal evidence he has left us of a man who "wore his heart on his sleeve." Coke's letters also give us contemporary insight into some of the events that began the transformation of an evangelical movement into a worldwide communion of churches. This critical edition gives a comparison to earlier editions, as well as references to names and locations for historical study. Book jacket.
