MGB and MGC by Jonathan Edwards
The MGB can rightly claim a place amongst the longest-lived and best-loved sports cars in the history of motoring. Launched at the London Motor Show in 1962, it became the most successful British sports car of all time, selling over half a million before production ended in 1980. The arrival of the MGB GT in 1965 added all year-round sporting practicality to MG's range and later two further major variants - the six-cylinder MGC and the potent MGB GT V8 - offered the same package with added performance. The MGB remains one of the most popular of all classic cars and Jonathan Edwards' detailed review of the model provides the perfect tribute to Abingdon's most famous product.
Jonathan Edwards (October 5, 1703 - March 22, 1758) was a preacher, theologian, and missionary to Native Americans. Edwards is widely acknowledged to be America's most important and original philosophical theo- logian, and one of America's greatest intellectuals. Edwards's theological work is very broad in scope, but he is often associated with his defense of Reformed Theology, the metaphysics of theological determinism, and the Puritan heritage. Recent studies have emphasized how thoroughly Edwards grounded his life's work on conceptions of beauty, harmony, and ethical fittingness, and how central The Enlightenment was to his mindset. Edwards played a critical role in shaping the First Great Awakening, and oversaw some of the first fires of revival in 1733-1735 at his church in Northampton, Massachusetts. Edwards's sermon Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God, is considered a classic of early American literature, which he delivered during another wave of revival in 1741, following George Whitefield's tour of the Thirteen Colonies. Edwards is widely known for his many books: The End For Which God Created the World; The Life of David Brainerd, which served to inspire thousands of missionaries throughout the nineteenth century; and Religious Affections, which many Reformed Evangelicals read even today. Edwards died from a smallpox inoculation shortly after beginning the presidency at the College of New Jersey (later to be named Princeton University), and was the grandfather of Aaron Burr.
