The first of a projected 4-volume set, Volume 1 contains writings of 1652-54, including both sides of Nayler's pamphlet debate with Puritan minister Thomas Weld.

The Works Of James Nayler - Volume 4

BY JAMES NAYLER, EDITED BY LICIA KUENNING
This is the final volume of Nayler's complete works. The tone of his later writings is a little less strident than that of his earlier ones, and he has more to say about the virtue of "meekness," but he remains uncompromising about total obedience to Christ within as the only road to salvation. Some of these writings were smuggled out of prison, and some could not be graced with his name until enough time had passed for that name to be less of a scandal. Three of his late essays were co-authored with other leading Quakers (two with Richard Hubberthorne and one with George Whitehead). A very comprehensive and useful index to the four volume set is included.
