Synopsis

Far less has been written about Charles Wesley compared with his brother John, and although there have been many studies of his hymns, Charles as a person is not well known. In this book, Barrie Tabraham paints a picture of the man himself, covering such aspects as his early life, his experiences in Georgia, his preaching, marriage and family life, and his relationship with John - particularly in the connection with Methodism's break with the Church of England. As well as dealing with Charles Wesley's gift as a hymn writer, the author sets his life and work in the context of early Methodism. Extracts from original sources are included alongside the narrative, allowing the reader the choice of studying them or simply reading the book without recourse to the documents.
