“Few names are so extensively known in the Christian communities of Great Britain and the United States as that of William Jay. His ‘Morning and Evening Exercises’ is in the great majority of Christian families. The Autobiography is written in a style of great simplicity and pleasantness. The reminiscences by Mr. Jay of prominent individuals with whom he was well acquainted—as John Newton, Richard Cecil, Robert Hall, William Wilberforce, and others, are graphic and entertaining, and replete with anecdote.”—Christian Intelligencer.
“This is a delightful work. The autobiography is a simple story of his life, in letters addressed to his children, beginning with bricklayer boy at Beckford’s Abbey, whose sweet face attracted the attention of Cornelius Winter, and led to the bringing out of the ‘boy preacher,’ and ending with the venerable patriarch of Bath, whose name and writings were known and loved all over Protestant Christendom.”—Watchman.
“As an autobiography, this will do to go along with that of Hugh Miller.”—Journal.
