Bishop J.C. Ryle's Autobiography

Bishop J.C. Ryle's Autobiography

John Charles Ryle (1816-1900), first Bishop of Liverpool, was one of
the most influential evangelical clergymen of the nineteenth century. A popular
platform speaker and prolific tract writer, his books are still widely read
across the globe.






Edited by Andrew Atherstone, this critical edition of Ryle's
manuscript autobiography, dictated in 1873, is a rich and unparalleled account
of the early decades of his life and ministry. He recalls his youthful pursuit
of academic plaudits and sporting prowess at Eton College and Oxford
University, before his evangelical conversion at the age of 21. He tells of the
devastating collapse of the family bank and the enforced sale of their Cheshire
estates, which ended his ambitions to enter parliament. Ryle describes his
exploits as a young clergyman, his loves and losses, his evangelical networks,
and the deaths of his first two wives. He offers a frank assessment of his joys
and struggles, and the reasons behind his crucial life choices. Written for his
children and never intended for publication, Bishop J.C. Ryle's
autobiography is essential reading for a proper appreciation of the man behind
the headlines in the years before he reached national and international
fame.






This volume also includes many photographs from the Ryle family albums,
never before published. Seven substantial appendices examine the Ryle Family
Bible, Ryle's schoolboy speeches, his conversion, his earliest
evangelical tracts, and his final will and testament.
