About this ebook
This detailed biography of John Wesley brings to life the remarkable journey of the man who founded Methodism. Written with Southey’s distinctive approach to biography, the book provides an engaging and comprehensive account of Wesley’s life as well as his work. Contemporary critics, however, claimed that since Southey was not a Methodist, he was unable to fully appreciate and capture Wesley’s internal struggles.

Author
Robert Southey
Robert Southey (1774 –1843) was an English Romantic poet, and Poet Laureate for 30 years. He was a prolific letter writer, literary scholar, historian and biographer. Perhaps his most enduring contribution to literary history is The Story of the Three Bears, the original Goldilocks story, first published in Southey's prose collection The Doctor. His biographies include the life and works of John Bunyan, John Wesley, William Cowper, Oliver Cromwell and Horatio Nelson.
