CARTWRIGHTIANA.

Thomas Cartwright was the leader of the Elizabethan Puritans and his intellectual pre-eminence was widely acknowledged.

"Cartwrightiana" is the first of two volumes giving authoritative editions of the works of the early Elizabethan Puritans--Cartwright, Browne and Harrison. It contains among other texts: accounts of Cartwright's examination before the Commissioners in 1590, "Resolution of Doubts about Entering the Ministry," several of his letters, "A Short Catechism" (1579), "The Holy Exercise of A True Fast "(1580) and "A Preface to An Hospitall for the Diseased " (1579).Carlson, Leland H. is the author of 'CARTWRIGHTIANA.', published 1951 under ISBN 9780042740010 and ISBN 0042740010.
