product description:
Thomas Grantham (1633/34-1692) provided important leadership as an English nonconformist and General Baptist polemicist and messenger in the second half of the seventeenth century. Grantham was baptized around 1652 in the Baptist church at Boston, Lincolnshire, and became one of the most significant Baptist figures of the period, yet no major historical study of Grantham has appeared until now.
Inscore Essick demonstrates that Grantham was instrumental in organizing and legitimizing the General Baptist movement in England, especially in the counties of Lincolnshire and Norfolk. Readers interested in Baptist history will find new information about Grantham s life and ministry as well as a comprehensive introduction to his many writings and their context.
Still, the treatment of a little-known collection of personal letters shows that Grantham could act intentionally and irenically with non-Baptist Christians, forging a deep friendship with a Church of England clergyman.
