A treatise on pastoral theology expounding the necessity of Anglican unity by Doctor of Divinity Thomas Dawson (1676-1740).
ESTC records two nearly identical concurrent issues, one of which, as here, has p.98 misnumbered 89 and the correct spellings of 'Dr. Sherlock' and 'Mr. Wall' in the title. Both are scarce, though this issue the more so, with ESTC locating only a single copy in the British Isles (Cambridge), and only one further in North America (Texas).
