The writings of Thomas Watson (c1620-1686) have long been a source of encouragement and inspiration; but to the modern reader their length, language and structure often hinder the enjoyment of their true value. Hamilton Smith's selection of extracts under topical headings powerfully conveys Watson's practical wisdom and apt illustrations.

The letters of Samuel Rutherford (1600-1661) have been a source of encouragement to Christians for over 350 years; but to the modern reader their language and structure can often hinder the enjoyment of their true value. In 1913, Hamilton Smith (1862-1943) set out to make the heart of the letters accessible to the reader of his day.
