Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Barclays of Ury and Other Sketches of the Early Friends
The introduction to the Apology is addressed to Charles II. There are tones in this preface, it has been said, Whose majesty of expostulation and calm ness of admonition - with yet a thrilling earnestness which makes every syllable vibrate like a living thing - had never been equalled since Nathan took up his parable before David. The appeal was perfect, and it was successful. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
