Joseph Alleine: His Companions and Times

Joseph Alleine: His Companions and Times A Memorial of “Black Bartholomew” 1662

Author’s Preface:  “The following work is an attempt to bring into notice some of our early Nonconformist worthies, the story of whose life-long sufferings for truth and duty is now almost unknown……. “In our own day, ‘Joseph Alleine’ is little more than a name;-a name that stands on the title-page of an old book, called, ‘An Alarm to the Unconverted;’-a dead name, without substance, personality, or history.  Still less is know of his companions, for, generally speaking, their very names have faded out of remembrance.”
