Letters by the Rev. John Newton
This book is a 2020 re-print of "Letters by the Rev. John Newton, originally printed 1869. It contains several letters never published before 1869, with Biographical Sketches and Illustrative Notes by the Rev. Josiah Bull, M.A. Religious Tract Society.Mr. Newton was a great and useful, if not a very accomplished letter-writer. His homely good sense, and his practical piety, made his correspondence very valuable, especially in his letter-writing days. He himself published several series of his letters-' Omricon, ' 'Cardiphonia, ' and 'Letters to a Wife, '" in addition to which several volumes of posthumous letters were published. Mr. Bull tells us that there are yet more. He has made a selection from these various collections, has added some unpublished ones, classified them under the names of Newton's different correspondents, and prefixed to each series a short biographical notice. Thus, he has put together a very interesting volume, which will be prized by many to whom the volumes referred to are inaccessible. In good sense and instructiveness, if not in intellectual power, Newton's letters deserve to be placed by the side of Samuel Rutherford
