The Life of Richard Allestree is a biographical book written by John Fell in 1848. It tells the story of Richard Allestree, an English Anglican divine and Royalist churchman who lived from 1619 to 1681. The book covers Allestree's life from his birth in Uppington, Shropshire, to his education at Oxford University, where he became a Fellow of Christ Church and later Vice-Chancellor. The book explores Allestree's role as a chaplain to King Charles II and his involvement in the Royalist cause during the English Civil War. It also delves into his literary works, including his most famous publication, The Whole Duty of Man, which became a widely read devotional text in the 17th and 18th centuries. Fell's biography provides insight into the religious and political landscape of 17th century England, as well as the life of a prominent figure in the Church of England. The book is a valuable resource for those interested in English history, literature, and religion.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
