London: Charles Harper, 1712. First printing. Hardcover. 8 x 5 inches, contemporary (possibly slightly later) full sprinkled panelled warm brown calf, very good, minimal wear, xii, 151 (1) pp. Fleetwood was regarded as the best preacher of his time. He was accurate in learning, and effective in delivery, and his character stood deservedly high in general estimation. In episcopal administration he far excelled most of his contemporaries. He was a zealous Hanoverian, and a favourite with Queen Anne in spite of his Whiggism. His opposition to the doctrine of non-resistance brought him into conflict with the Tory ministry of 1712 and with Swift, but he never entered into personal controversy. Very Good. Item #H21919
