The Reverend Henry Venn (1725 1797) was an Anglican clergyman who
became a central figure in the English evangelical revival movement
of the late eighteenth century. This book, containing a substantial
selection of his letters and a biography written by his son John,
was edited for publication in London in 1834 by his grandson Henry
(who himself became an influential clergyman and missionary). The
elder Henry Venn, after studying at Cambridge and being ordained
priest, had ministered in parishes including Clapham, Huddersfield
and Yelling. He was famous for his preaching, which attracted large
congregations, and was remembered especially for his work among the
urban and rural poor. He also published several books, including
The Whole Duty of Man (1763), which reveal the development of his
theological views over the course of his life. They are listed in
the bibliography of this volume.
