"What follows within the seven chapters of this volume focuses not so much upon the scholarship--the quality of the substance of that scholarship--but upon the scholars as human beings who have produced it. That does not imply that one can or should separate the two.... Rather, the intent of this volume has been to present to the reader the biographical and bibliographical backgrounds of six scholars recognized for their close associations with their studies of primary sources related to John Wesley--the eighteenth-century Methodist patriarch's diaries, journals, letters, sermons, and prose tracts. ...[T]his volume will serve as a forum of sorts wherein these six scholars will be permitted to speak (or write) for themselves...their own scholarly intents and methods." -Samuel J. Rogal (Introduction)
