Description
Beadle's book is essentially a how-to manual about how to write a spiritual diary; moreover, it is the only one of its kind written in seventeenth-century England. Modern scholars often mention its influence and importance in understanding the journaling impulse among the Puritans of the 16th and 17th centuries. This is the first modern systematic examination or critical edition of the work.
