The Journal of John Wesley by John Wesley

In his Journal, John Wesley gives his readers a vivid picture of his life in eighteenth-century Britain and America. Wesley's account, originally written in code and later published in instalments, records the journeys of the man who regarded the world as his parish. Covering fifty-six years of his life, the Journal chronicles his controversial open-air preaching, his inner doubts and conflicts, his journeys on horseback and by ship, and his encounters with many people - the famous, the infamous and the ordinary.
'Part travelogue, part spiritual diary, Wesley's comments during his 250,000 miles of travel make highly entertaining reading' - Daily Telegraph 'For the first time, an accessible, abridged version of the eighteenth-century spiritual classic.' - Methodist Recorder
CHRISTOPHER IDLE first abridged Wesley's journal while he was rector of Limehouse. Since 1995 he has lived and worked in Peckham, south-east London.
