Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Works of John and Charles Wesley: A Bibliography; Containing an Exact Account of All the Publications Issued by the Brothers Wesley, Arranged in Chronological Order, With a List of the Early Editions, and Descriptive and Illustrative Notes The works are placed in the precise order in which they were published, as far as that order, by the most careful inquiry, can be ascertained. The only variations being that, for convenience of reference, the Poetical Works issued in any year are placed at the end of the list for that year. The full litle-page of the first edition of each work is given, * and the name of publisher and date of issue of all known editions to the end of the century. Differences in spelling in title-pages are reproduced. They were due mainly to the fact that Wesley seldom had the opportunity of correcting the press proofs. A brief description of each book and pamphlet generally follows, and a statement of the occasion on which it was written. Where they can be discovered, the titles of works which Wesley combatted or condensed are inserted, and illustrative extracts from the Journals of the two brothers and from other writings are added, the whole forming a view of the literary labours of these remarkable men such as has not hitherto appeared. It will be observed that there is much confusion in the numbering of the Editions. It is a common characteristic; and probably arose from the books having been published in different towns and by different printers.
