Ryle, J.C. - Facts and Men - Second Edition (1882)
A very collectible edition of J.C. Ryle’s work. It is called Facts and Men; “Being pages from English Church History, some Biographical and some Historical, between 1553 and 1683.” This book is the original volume that would become Light From Old times, which is still in print—but these editions with the earlier title are much more scarce. The most desirable volumes to be collected are, as a general rule, those published by William Hunt and Co. This 1882 second edition is an early copy of the work by the original publisher. This is a great addition to a library for a Ryle collector.
