 Jeremiah Burroughs, Notable Works Reprinted

Jeremiah Burroughs was a prolific author.   His influence continued after his death in 1646 because his writings continue to be published posthumously.

Digitizing a piece of ancient writing is quite an undertaking, as each page must be copied and rewritten in a form that people today can understand. The process and challenge of digitizing this book is very interesting and can be found here on the Blue Letter Bible website.
