The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own: digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries, undergraduate students, and independent scholars. The Age of Enlightenment profoundly enriched religious and philosophical understanding and continues to influence present-day thinking. Works collected here include masterpieces by David Hume, Immanuel Kant, and Jean-Jacques Rousseau, as well as religious sermons and moral debates on the issues of the day, such as the slave trade. The Age of Reason saw conflict between Protestantism and Catholicism transformed into one between faith and logic -- a debate that continues in the twenty-first century. ++++ The below data was compiled from various identification fields in the bibliographic record of this title.

Charles Clinton Beatty was born in 1715 in County Antrim, Ireland, the son of John Beatty, an officer in the British army, and of Christiana Clinton, who was an aunt of George Clinton. The father died while Charles was young, and his mother came to America in 1729 with her brother Charles, father of George Clinton.
Beatty had received a classical and religious education in Ireland but on reaching America, because of his poverty, he became a peddler. He stopped at the Log College, Neshaminy, Pennsylvania, where William Tennent, the headmaster, persuaded him to enroll as a student and prepare for the ministry.
Charles Beatty was licensed to preach at Nottingham in 1742. The next year he was assigned to William Tennent's church at Neshaminy and upon Tennent's retirement succeeded him in the pastorate, being formally ordained and installed in December 1743. The church was disrupted by discordant factions, but Beatty met the situation with prudence and dignity. He was interested in all missionary experiments and sympathized with David Brainerd in his efforts to convert the Indians. Brainerd visited Beatty's house and took part in a communion service at his church, which he mentions in his journal.
In 1764 Beatty was chosen moderator of the synod. He was appointed to take a missionary trip to Virginia and North Carolina in 1754. In the next year he became chaplain to the Pennsylvania troops who were sent under William Franklin to defend the northwestern borders of the state after the massacre of the Moravian missionaries near Lehighton.
In 1758 the two synods of New Brunswick which had differed on matters of doctrine were united, and Beatty was appointed on a committee to establish a fund for the relief of poor Presbyterian ministers, ministers' widows, and their children. Two years later he was sent to England by the synod to solicit funds for the committee. He was successful and received a donation from George III. Three years later he was sent with Duffield to investigate the condition of the Indian tribes. In the next year Beatty went again to England because of his wife's health, but she died shortly after their arrival. Since 1763 he had been a trustee of the College of New Jersey, and in 1772 because it was greatly in need of funds he agreed to visit the West Indies and solicit money. He died of yellow fever, soon after reaching the island of Barbados.
One of the most popular preachers of his day, he published only one sermon, Double Honour Due to the Laborious Gospel Minister (1756), preached at the ordination of the Rev. William Ramsay. His other publications include the Journal of a Two Months' Tour Among the Frontier Inhabitants of Pennsylvania (1768), a Letter to the Rev. John Erskine, in which the hypothesis that the Indians are the descendants of the Ten Tribes is maintained by a variety of arguments, and Further Remarks Respecting Indian Affairs, an account of what had been done for the Indians in America.
