Omschrijving

Public Spirit: Illustrated In The Life And Designs Of Thomas Bray is a book written by Samuel Smith and published in 1746. The book is a biography of Thomas Bray, an English clergyman who was known for his philanthropic work and his efforts to improve education and literacy in the American colonies. The book provides a detailed account of Bray's life, including his early years as a clergyman in England, his work as a missionary in Maryland, and his founding of the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel in Foreign Parts. The book also discusses Bray's efforts to establish libraries and schools in the colonies, as well as his advocacy for the rights of slaves and Native Americans.Throughout the book, Smith emphasizes Bray's commitment to public service and his belief in the importance of education and literacy as tools for social and moral improvement. The book is notable for its vivid descriptions of life in colonial America, as well as for its insights into the religious and social movements of the time.Overall, Public Spirit: Illustrated In The Life And Designs Of Thomas Bray is a compelling and informative biography of one of the most important figures in the history of colonial America. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of religion, education, and social reform in the early modern period.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
