First published in London in 1622, William Gouge's Of Domestical Duties is the most systematic Puritan treatment of marriage, parenting, and household life ever written, eight treatises bringing every relationship of the home under the light of Scripture, now available in this clothbound hardcover single volume. This edition offers a light, conservative modernization, making only minor readability updates to stay true to Gouge's original. It also restores the patterns of family prayer he added to the third edition of 1634; a prayer for each member of the household, gathered from the treatises themselves. "A family is a little church, and a little commonwealth, at least a lively representation thereof, whereby trial may be made of such as are fit for any place of authority, or of subjection, in church or commonwealth. Or rather it is a school wherein the first principles and grounds of government and subjection are learned, whereby men are fitted to greater matters in church or commonwealth." William Gouge was an English Puritan minister and member of the Westminster Assembly. For over forty-five years he served the congregation of St Anne Blackfriars in London.
