ment and a revision of the author’s fully documented work: “England: Before and After Wesley.” It is di vided into three parts. The first, “An Age of Expiring Hopes,” deals with the stagnant and corrupt State Church, the travesty of slavery and slave-trading, the corrupt economic and political life, and the almost indescribable pe nal system of England in those years. The second part, “A People Finds Its Soul,” is the story of the conversion of Wesley and the great revival that followed. It names a great number of people who were actively associated in this tnovement. Ik paints one picture very clearly: that- Wesley preached no new doctrine, but simply re-empha sized the cardinal truths of Christian ity. Part three, “An Era of Epic Re forms,” is Just what the name implies. The author states that as the result of the work of Wesley and his associates, slavery was abolished from England, and the groundwork was laid for its death in America; economic, political, and social conditions were bettered, and new labor laws with far-reaching results were adopted. 353 pages.
