Calendar of the Correspondence of Richard Baxter: Volume I: 1638-1660
Summary
The correspondence of the Puritan divine Richard Baxter is an unusually rich source of evidence for seventeenth-century history, particularly the period's involved ecclesiastical history and its intellectual, cultural, and bibliographical tastes. These two volumes present the 1250 extant letters by and to Baxter. Presented chronologically, with extensive biographies, annotations, summaries, and contextual notes, many of the letters have never before been published.
