Excerpt from Religion and Education in America: With Notices of the State and Prospects of American Unitarianism, Popery, and African Colonization

Fellow-Countrymen and Fellow-Christians,

The following work was commenced on the 1st of June last, on board the steam-ship, British Queen, in the Bay of New York, and was written partly during my voyage across the Atlantic, and partly in the midst of numerous and sometimes harassing avocations since my return to England. There are deficiencies in its plan and arrangement, which you will easily perceive, and which a little leisure might probably have enabled me to obviate. There may be discrepancies also between some of its statements on minor points, which a word or two of explanation, if I had perceived them in time, would doubtless have enabled me to reconcile. But such as it is, I inscribe it to you; because I am strongly of opinion that it is just such a work as is wanted in Scotland in the present important crisis of our National Church.
