The Cambridge preacher often called the father of the Puritans.
William Perkins was a wild young man at Cambridge who changed course completely and became the most widely read English preacher of his generation. He preached to prisoners in Cambridge jail and to students at Great St Andrew's.
His books were translated across Europe. Christian Oeconomie, his short guide to Christian family life, was published in English after his death.
