First published in 1938, this book presents a selection from the
papers of Nicholas Ferrar (1592-1637), intended to provide a
detailed illustration of 'the life and work of a saint of the
Church of England'. The text keeps as much as possible to the
spelling and punctuation of the original manuscripts and editorial
notes are kept to a minimum. Illustrative figures and an
introduction are included, together with a bibliography and
genealogy. This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in
the writings of Ferrar, Anglicanism and British history.

""How happy a king were I, if I had many more such workmen and workwomen in my kingdom Their art and ability is excellent. Let them know I will not forget them. God's blessing on their hearts, and painful hands." Such were the words and opinions of King Charles I., when speaking of the happy and industrious family whose life and labours at Little Gidding are described in the following pages, a family entirely devoted to good works, under the able direction of Mr. Nicholas Ferrar, whose history has happily been preserved for us with great accuracy, and which can hardly fail to be attractive."
