Description

Book Synopsis
The writings of Thomas Watson (c1620-1686) have long been a source of encouragement and inspiration; but to the modern reader their length, language and structure often hinder the enjoyment of their true value. Hamilton Smith's selection of extracts under topical headings powerfully conveys Watson's practical wisdom and apt illustrations.

Trade Review
"This is perhaps the best introduction to Watson, a writer always wonderfully aphoristic and stylish. I find a pencil and six-inch ruler essential when reading him as I am constantly coming upon choice sentences to underline. ... Words which provoke meditation are a sure sign of good writing." (David J. Newell, "The Believer's Library", John Ritchie)
