An early, lifetime edition of this treatise by William Paley (1743-1805) outlining the historical evidence in favour of Christianity, and responding to some popular objections to the existence of miracles and the discrepancies found between the gospels.
It preceded Paley's best-known work, Natural Theology: or, Evidences of the Existence and Attributes of the Deity, published in 1802 — famous for advancing the watchmaker analogy as proof of God's existence by intelligent design.
Seventh edition; 2 vols; 8vo (21.5 x 14 cm); half-title to each vol., pencil annotations to pastedown, occasional minor spotting; contemporary sprinkled calf, contrasting red and black morocco lettering-pieces to spine, joints starting to split but holding, slightly rubbed with minor loss; xii, 383, [1]; vii, [1], 416pp.
