This three-volume account of the life of John Wesley (1703-91) was
published in the year of his death. Written by John Hampson
(c.1753-1819), a Church of England clergyman and former Methodist
preacher, the work also contains a thorough review of Wesley's
writings and a history of Methodism. Hampson's excellent overview
of contemporary assessments of the preacher is more balanced than
John Whitehead's two-volume Life of the Rev. John Wesley (1793-6),
which has also been reissued in this series. Volume 3 gives an
account of Wesley's death, but is predominantly concerned with a
critique of Methodist theology, activity and mode of preaching. It
gives a measured assessment of Wesley's character and reflects on
the opposition to the work's previous volumes displayed by Wesley's
executors, highlighting the struggle over his legacy - a matter of
great importance in the history of Methodism.

growth of Methodism in both England and North America, covering
Wesley's itinerant preaching, the death of his mother, and
theological differences with his brother Charles. It also gives an
account of Wesley's increased activity in ordaining priests for
travel to America. Drawing on a wide range of sources, the work
remains important for its informed appraisal of this religious
movement and its founder.

chapters on his brothers Samuel and Charles. Drawing on a wide
