''A Tract of Future Times'' is a thought-provoking book written by Robert Hovenden in 1850. The book is essentially a reflection on the 19th century and its various social, political, and cultural movements. Hovenden takes a critical approach to the era, examining the excitement, hypocrisy, and idolatry that he believes defined the time. The book is written from the perspective of posterity, with Hovenden imagining what future generations might think of the 19th century. He explores topics such as religion, politics, science, and art, examining the ways in which they were influenced by the social and cultural trends of the time. Throughout the book, Hovenden challenges readers to consider the impact of their actions on future generations. He argues that the choices made in the 19th century will have lasting consequences for centuries to come, and that it is important to be mindful of this when making decisions. Overall, ''A Tract of Future Times'' is a fascinating and insightful look at the 19th century. It offers a unique perspective on the era and encourages readers to think critically about their own place in history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
