The Cradle of Methodism 1739-2017: A History of the New Room and of Methodism in Bristol and Kingswood in the Time of John and Charles
No Customer Reviews
The first full-scale history of the New Room, Bristol - the oldest Methodist Chapel in the world. It was built by John Wesley in 1739 and is the cradle of Methodism.
Three-quarters of this book is about events in the eighteenth century because many of the visitors who come to the New Room today do so entirely because of its connection to the Wesleys.
However, the author hopes the reader will find the last six chapters, which cover the last two hundred years of the building's history, equally interesting. For those who work and volunteer here, the New Room remains a very special place.
This book is dedicated to them. All proceeds from its sale will contribute to the running costs of the building and its continued work.
