This edition of Colonel Andrew Burn’s <i>Who Fares Best? The Christian or the Man of the World?</i> was published by Bradford & Read of Boston, Massachusetts in 1816. Andrew Burn was serving in the Royal Marines when he penned this dialogue between Horatio and Eugenio in 1789. Burn eventually rose to the rank of Major General by his death in 1814. The book was meant to portray the virtues of living a Christian life of piety when compared to a life of fashionable dispensation.
