Reseña del editor

This book is not what is called scientific history. It is just a simple statement of the rise and progress of Primitive Methodism in the North ;in truth, it is but a summary of a great story, for the compiler could have filled several volumes of this size. There are sections, indeed, of the old Sunderland District such as the Dales, Cleveland, and the original Darlington, Carlisle, Hexham, Sunderland, Newcastle, and North Shields Circuits which could each supply a bulky book of engaging interest. The severity of the condensation which had to be pursued to get the present work into the allotted space may have made it bald, scraggy, lop-sided, inartistic in places; and from the very nature of the recital the frequent use of the same terms and phrases was inevit able. Descriptive writing and character sketches being impossible, an earnest effort has been made to save the volume from being a mere compilation of statistics. For want of space also as well as for other reasons the critical element had to be excluded, and everything which men and movements have contributed to the general flow of connexional expansion has been brought into prominence. Many correspondents will be disappointed. They have the compilers fullest sympathy. It may be, however, that opportunities will occur before long when some of their contributions will be given to the world.
