Excerpt from The History of Wesleyan Methodism, in Grantham and Its Vicinity: With Preliminary Observations on the Rise, Progress and Utility, the Discipline and Doctrines of the Connexion, the Life of Its Founder, Etc It might be considered proper that some apology should be made for the step which he has taken in bringing forward his work to the public eye, as it probably would tend to soften down the asperity of criticism. To such apologies he is no friend, sensible even as he is of his own deficiencies, and of the can dour which this production of his pen will need from readers whose ability to judge of its merits is only of an ordinary er tent. If the reasons he asked why he undertook to send forth such a work, he will frankly acknowledge them. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

"With this volume the publication of A History of the Methodist Church in Great Britain comes to its appointed end. The project of writing it was initiated by the Methodist Conference of 1953, and the lapse of time since then has made it possible to include at appropriate points the results of the continuing research into the origins and nature of Methodism; but 'the chance and changes of this mortal life', which are bound to impinge on the progress of so complex an enterprise, together with the heavy involvement of all the contributors in ecclesiastical, ecumenical and academic affairs, have made this period much longer than the General Editors would have wished." -- From the Preface

The dominant activities of the eighteenth century Wesleyan Methodist Connexion, in terms of expenditure, were the support of itinerant preaching, and the construction and maintenance of preaching houses. These were supported by a range of both regular and occasional flows of funds, primarily from members' contributions, gifts from supporters, various forms of debt finance, and profits from the Book Room. Three other areas of action also had significant financial implications for the movement: education, welfare, and missions. The Financing of John Wesley's Methodism c.1740-1800 describes what these activities cost, and how the money required was raised and managed. Though much of the discussion is informed by financial and other quantitative data, Clive Norris examines a myriad of human struggles, and the conflict experienced by many early Wesleyan Methodists between their desire to spread the Gospel and the limitations of their personal and collective resources. He describes the struggle between what Methodists saw as the promptings of Holy Spirit and their daily confrontation with reality, not least the financial constraints which they faced.
