The Grounds of a Holy Life
Unknown artist
Hugh Turford’s <i>The Grounds of a Holy Life</i> was published by J. Babcock of Hartford, Connecticut in 1800. The 120 page book also contained Paul’s speech to the Bishop of Cretia, as well as homilies on the tests of Christianity. The book was a conversion treatise that described the way that heathens came to be renowned Christians, and how similar sinners may be converted to sainthood with the help of a little preaching.
