A Compedious View of Natural and Revealed Religion in Seven Books
Philadelphia: David Hogan, 1819. First American Edition. Hardcover. Hardcover. Ex-Library. Bound in Leather. John Brown of Haddington (1722 – 19 June 1787), was a Scottish minister and author. He was born at Carpow, in Perthshire. He was almost entirely self-educated, having acquired a knowledge of ancient languages while employed as a shepherd. By his own intense application to study, before he was twenty years of age, he had obtained an intimate knowledge of the Latin, Greek, and Hebrew languages, with the last of which he was critically conversant. His early career was varied, and he was in succession a travelling merchant, a soldier in the Edinburgh garrison in 1745, and a school-master. xxiv 576pp.
