Rezension
«This book reassesses Fletcher and his ministry thoroughly and persuasively: any student of early Methodism needs to read this for it articulates how 'Methodism' could operate in a local situation and can be put alongside other new work, such as Russell Frazier's on Swiss theological influences on Fletcher, and on Mary Bosanquet/Mrs Fletcher.»
