A significant late?17th?century London printing of A Practical Discourse Concerning a Future Judgment by William Sherlock, D.D., one of the most influential Anglican theologians of the Restoration and post?Restoration period. Sherlock?s writings on morality, eschatology, and Christian duty were widely read across Britain and the American colonies, shaping Protestant thought for generations.

This 1699 edition, printed ?by R. R. for W. Rogers, at the Sun, over?against St. Dunstan?s Church in Fleetstreet,? is an authentic example of London theological printing at the end of the 1600s. The volume retains its original full leather binding and includes an important piece of provenance: the bookplate of Thomas, Earl of Kinnoull, a Scottish noble family with deep political and ecclesiastical connections.

A complete, unrestored, historically rich example of early English religious literature.
