A beautiful first edition of Thomas Robinson's [1749-1812] superb work of doctrinal and practical theology. He is today best known for his oft-reprinted "Scripture Characters," but the present work deserves to be retrieved. Deeply evangelical, solidly evangelical, and always turning the corner to internal and missional application.

Additionally, this copy includes a letter from William Cunningham, gifting the set to James Ewing. Cunningham was a well-known Scottish divine and James Ewing was related to the family of the "John Browns," [of Edinburgh, Haddington, etc,.] from whose estate we originally purchased these perhaps two years ago. 

Robinson, Thomas. The Christian System Unfolded in a Course of Practical Essays on the Principal Doctrines and Duties of Christianity. In Three Volumes [Complete]. London. Printed for the Author. Sold by F. C. and J. Rivington, etc. 1805. First Edition. 

Absolutely beautiful tree calf bindings with rather elaborate gold tooling on spine and contrasting black morroco labels. Very attractive. Just slightly stiff at hinges. Otherwise, spectacularly preserved.
