520			_a"The life and times of the Rev. John Wesley, M.A., founder of the Methodists.…." by Rev. L. Tyerman is a historical biography written in the late 19th century. It chronicles John Wesley’s later years and the expansion of Methodism through his travels, letters, sermons, and conferences, highlighting disputes over Calvinism, Christian perfection, and adherence to the Church of England. Drawing on journals and correspondence, it shows how Wesley organized and financed the movement while extending its reach in Britain and abroad. The opening of the volume concentrates on 1768, tracing Wesley at 65 through conciliatory exchanges with Whitefield and Berridge, counsel to Lady Huntingdon, the sermon “The Good Steward,” and an energetic tour from Chatham to the North and into Scotland preaching to soldiers and vast crowds. It presents his belief in supernatural testimony (via the Sunderland apparition case), firm advocacy of Christian perfection without separating from the Church, and a stream of pointed letters (to Fletcher, his brother Charles, and critics like Thomas Adam). It prints his 1768 will and recounts the Bristol Conference—framed by his urgent dash to visit his ailing wife—which set policies on preachers trading, revived field and early-morning preaching, enforced discipline, fasting, and pastoral visitation. The narrative also touches overseas beginnings through Laurence Coughlan’s work in Newfoundland, the Oxford student expulsions and ensuing pamphlet war, and the opening of Lady Huntingdon’s Trevecca college. Throughout, decisions about chapels (such as retaining Spitalfields), burdensome debts, and even congregational singing reveal the practical strains of a rapidly growing movement.
