''Thomas Boston of Ettrick: His Life and Times'' is a historical biography written by Andrew Thomson and published in 1895. The book tells the story of Thomas Boston, a prominent Scottish theologian and pastor who lived in the late 17th and early 18th centuries. The book begins with a detailed account of Boston’s early life, including his upbringing in a Presbyterian family and his education at the University of Edinburgh. It then goes on to describe his career as a minister, first in rural Scotland and later in the city of Edinburgh. Throughout the book, Thomson provides a richly detailed account of Boston’s religious beliefs and the theological controversies of his time. He also explores Boston’s relationships with other prominent figures of his era, including fellow ministers, politicians, and members of the Scottish aristocracy. In addition to its biographical content, ''Thomas Boston of Ettrick'' also offers a fascinating glimpse into the social and cultural history of Scotland during the late 17th and early 18th centuries. Through Thomson’s vivid descriptions of Boston’s surroundings and the people he interacted with, readers are transported back in time to a world that is both familiar and foreign. Overall, ''Thomas Boston of Ettrick: His Life and Times'' is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Scottish history, religious studies, or the lives of influential figures from the past.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
