Select Memoirs of the English and Scottish Divines

Thomas Smith has written a tour de force biography of English and Scottish Divines from the Reformation and Puritan era. The work begins with renowned English Worthies and concludes with those who were deemed Non-conformists or Puritans. There are contained in this volume 132 entries which treat each of these worthies and divines with the utmost respect for their work and labors for the Lord Jesus Christ, many of whom glorified God in their death as martyrs. Here you will truly meet the best English Divines and Puritans of their day.

Also included are: “An Historical Sketch of the Christian Church” and a "Short Introduction to the Lives of the Puritans." This is a major historical work with noted entries such as: Ames, Baille, Baxter, Bolton, Bradford, the Burgess' (both Anthony and Cornelius), Case, Cawdrey, Coverdale, Cotton, Fox, Gillespie, Goodman, Goodwin, Henderson, Hooker, Hooper, Janeway, Latimer, Lightfoot, Ridley, Rogers, Rutherford, Sibbes, Tyndale, Vines, and a host of others.
