    The scarce first edition of this work, the first collected edition of the works of Edward Stillingfleet, edited for publication by his son, James Stillingfleet.

    An impressive collected edition of the works of this Christian theologian and scholar. Considered an outstanding preacher as well as a strong polemical writer on defending Anglicanism, Stillingfleet was known as "the beauty of holiness" for his handsome appearance.
