Part of the most comprehensive collection of Wesley's writings. The correspondence presented in this sixth volume of Wesley's letters covers the period when Methodists in North America, by a ""strange providence,"" were severed from their relationship with the Church of England. Wesley made heroic efforts to provide them with ordained clergy and other materials they would need in their life as a ""church."" It also illuminates the tensions that John's decision to ordain clergy for Methodists outside of England created within his connexion in England--particularly with his brother Charles. The volume includes over 200 items not found in previous editions of Wesley's letters. All Works of John Wesley volumes are designed to keep the pages clean and in place for years to come, with casebound non-cloth hardcover, dust jacket, and secure adhesive binding.
