This edition gathers into one convenient volume and in chronological order all of the known essays, epistles, and other works which Woolman intended for general readers. Some have never before been published and have barely been known in modern times. By placing the works in chronological order, the development of his thought is revealed. The editor's introduction to each of the texts is intended to explains the context for each work in its historical moment.
