This collection comprises the personal correspondence of Robert Wodrow (1679-1734), a Scottish minister and historian, offering invaluable insights into the religious, political, and social landscape of early 18th-century Scotland. Volume 2 contains a wide range of letters to and from Wodrow, revealing his interactions with prominent figures of the time and shedding light on the key issues facing the Church of Scotland.
Through these letters, readers gain a nuanced understanding of the debates surrounding church governance, the Jacobite threat, and the ongoing tensions between Presbyterians and Episcopalians. The correspondence reveals Wodrow's deep commitment to his faith, his astute observations of contemporary events, and his tireless efforts to preserve the historical records of the Scottish Church. This volume is an essential resource for scholars interested in Scottish history, religious history, and the history of ideas.
