Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Philip Doddridge, D.D
Many of these gentlemen have furnished him with the knowledge of facts never before printed. From such materials, and from reliable traditions, he, originally prepared the manuscript of a much largerwork than the present. It seemed to be' wanted. Few Christian leaders in the last century were so active, representative, and in?uential as Dr. Doddridge. He laboured, and other men have entered into his labours. But although we have Mr. Orton's biography, and Dr. Stoughton's grace ful centenary memorial of him, he is now too much forgotten. Who was Dr. Doddridge? Was he really an Unitarian? Did he write anything besides the Pilgrim's Progress P What did he do i' These, or similar questions, are sometimes asked, and this book, as at first written with great delight, was intended to supply all the information that could be found. The writer, however, gradually felt a suspicion that busy modern men could not spare time to give it attention, and he has therefore cut it down to what it is, in the hope that by so doing he may gain more readers, and do more good.
