"The 'old book' sheds light upon that part of our history where all before was dark as a starless midnight. It is the firs record of the trustees and stewards of the old John-street Church...They were very particular in those days to record everything, small and great...It describes the early and great men of Methodism, in whom the great Methodist family have a common interest." - Preface.
