The Memoir of Reverend James Patterson, published in 1840, is a biographical account of the life and work of Reverend James Patterson, written by his friend and fellow minister, Robert Adair. The book is divided into two parts: an introduction and a chapter on field preaching.The introduction provides a brief overview of Patterson's life, including his childhood, education, and early ministry. Adair also discusses Patterson's dedication to the Methodist Church and his role as a circuit rider, traveling throughout the countryside to preach and minister to the rural communities.The second part of the book focuses on field preaching, a practice common among early Methodist ministers. Adair describes the challenges and rewards of preaching in the open air, often in remote locations and adverse weather conditions. He also provides examples of Patterson's field preaching, including his ability to connect with his audience and inspire them to embrace Christianity.Throughout the memoir, Adair portrays Patterson as a dedicated and compassionate minister, committed to spreading the gospel and serving his community. He also highlights the importance of field preaching in the early Methodist Church and its role in reaching those who may not have had access to traditional church services.Overall, the Memoir of Reverend James Patterson provides valuable insights into the life and work of an influential early Methodist minister and the practice of field preaching in the 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
