Isaac Taylor (1787 1865) was known as Isaac Taylor of Stanford
Rivers, to distinguish him from his father, Isaac Taylor of Ongar,
engraver and dissenting minister. He, his brother Jefferys, and
their sisters Ann and Jane, were all writers, and their mother was
the well-known 'Mrs Taylor of Ongar', some of whose books are also
reissued in this series. The younger Isaac felt drawn to the Church
of England, and made a name for himself with studies of the Church
Fathers and the classics (he is said to have coined the word
'patristic'). This two-volume collection of writings by three
generations of the Taylor family was compiled and published in 1867
by the Isaac Taylor of the next generation. Volume 1 contains
Taylor of Stanford Rivers's 'Family Pen', an appreciation of him by
his son, and his memoir of his sister Jane, a well-known writer for
children."
