Synopsis

""Nicholas Ferrar, Two Lives"" is a biographical book written by J. E. B. Mayor in 1855. The book is divided into two parts, the first being a memoir of Nicholas Ferrar's life written by his brother John Ferrar, and the second being a biography written by Doctor Jebb. Nicholas Ferrar was a prominent figure in the early 17th century, known for his religious devotion and philanthropy. He founded a religious community called the ""Little Gidding"" in Huntingdonshire, England, where he and his family lived a life of prayer and service to others. The first part of the book, written by John Ferrar, provides an intimate look into Nicholas's early life, his education, and his eventual decision to devote himself to God. It also details the establishment and daily life of the Little Gidding community, as well as Nicholas's role as a spiritual leader and mentor to those around him. The second part of the book, written by Doctor Jebb, delves further into Nicholas's religious beliefs and practices, as well as his impact on the wider community. It also explores the historical context of the time, including the religious and political upheavals of the English Civil War. Overall, ""Nicholas Ferrar, Two Lives"" offers a comprehensive and insightful look into the life and legacy of a remarkable individual who dedicated his life to serving God and others.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
