About This Item
New York printed: London reprinted: James Phillips & Son, 1798. [2], xiii, [1], 293pp, [3]. With a final leaf of publisher's advertisements. Contemporary gilt-ruled sheep, contrasting red morocco lettering-piece. Rubbed, joints split, some surface loss to spine, corners bumped. Pencil trials and worm tracks to endpapers, scattered foxing. An early English edition, printed in the year after the American first, of a biography of Job Scott (1751-1793), eminent traveling minister in the Religious Society of Friends and a prominent American quietist. Later interpretations of Scott's atypical doctrinal philosophy would contribute to the 1827 Hicksite-Orthodox split, the first schism within Quakerism. ESTC T76782.. New edition. 12mo.
