The third of seven volumes of John Wesley's correspondence, this volume is devoted to Wesley's letters written from 1756 to 1765. The letters of John Wesley are of value as literature--especially as crisp statements of his views or expressions of his hope. More important, however, is the power of these letters to reveal Wesley as a man and to illuminate the people and events of his day. They provide a portrait through 70 years that is both more revealing in detail and fuller in coverage than any other source. And for readers who are interested in the Methodist movement, these letters have no equal. The correspondence presented in this fifth volume of Wesley's letters includes a large number of his pastoral letters to various female and male lay persons in his societies. These letters trace the fluctuations of Wesley's stance on the British colonists in North America (and their Whig supporters in England) from the growing flames through the closing battles of their revolution. The volume includes over 180 items not found in previous editions of Wesley's letters.
