Large 8vo, 225 x 140 mms., pp. xxix [xxx Errata], 428, including 17 pages of subscribers, original boards, uncut, many leaves unopened; boards detached, edges a bit soiled, ex-library. The Independent minister Stephen Addington (1729 - 1796) was a prolific author, writing textbooks on arithmetic, geography, and Greek grammar, not to mention a number of works on religious and moral themes. Addington notes that most of what is known about Paul's life derives from the Book of Acts. Before Addington's work, the earliest modern biography of Paul appears to be that Antoine Godeau (1605 - 1672), translated into English in 1653. James Macknight (1721 - 1800) published his History of the Life of the Apostle Paul in 1795. ESTC T89161 locates copies in Aberdeen, BL, Congregational Library, and Southampton in these islands; John Hopkins, Library of Congress, and Yale in North America.
