The book is a biography of Nicholas Ferrar, an English scholar, courtier, businessman, and religious leader who lived in the 17th century. Ferrar was known for his piety and his establishment of a religious community at Little Gidding in Huntingdonshire. Carter’s biography provides a detailed account of Ferrar’s life, beginning with his childhood and education, and continuing through his years as a courtier and businessman in London. The book also explores Ferrar’s religious beliefs and his decision to retire from public life and establish a religious community at Little Gidding. In addition to Ferrar’s life, Carter also provides insights into the lives of Ferrar’s family and friends, including his sister, Susanna, and his cousin, George Herbert, a famous poet and Anglican priest. The book includes letters and other primary source materials that shed light on the personal relationships and spiritual practices of Ferrar and his community. Overall, Nicholas Ferrar: His Household And His Friends is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the life and legacy of Nicholas Ferrar, as well as the history of religious communities in England during the 17th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
