Esteemed Reproach: The Lives Of Rev. James Ireland And Rev. Joseph Craig

Many Baptists were persecuted for their faith in late-eighteenth-century Virginia but only two, James Ireland and Joseph Craig are known to have left first-hand accounts of their struggles. Esteemed The Lives of Reverend James Ireland and Reverend Joseph Craig brings these two works together for the first time and offers readers a vivid account of religious persecution in colonial Virginia and the price some were willing to pay for their freedom.
