		Brainerd in particular, notwithstanding his inclination to despondency, he was evidently one of those who usually are the furthest from a teeming imagination; being of a penetrating genius, of clear thought, of close reasoning, and a very exact judgment; as all know, who knew him.
		Brainerd’s religion constantly disposed him to a most mean thought of himself, an abasing sense of his own exceeding sinfulness, deficiency, unprofitableness, and ignorance; looking on himself as worse than others; disposing him to universal benevolence and meekness; in honour to prefer others, and to treat all with kindness and respect.
		Dorothy Brainerd having lived about five years a widow, died when her son, of whose life I am about to give an account, was about fourteen years of age: so that in his youth he was left both fatherless and motherless.

		Brainerd was examined by the correspondents in New-York, New-Jersey, and Pennsylvania, of the Society in Scotland for propagating Christian knowledge; to whom was committed the management of their affairs in those parts, and who were not met at New-York.], and was made sensible of my great ignorance and unfitness for public service.

		Publisher description: Edwards' "Life of David Brainerd" is a rare, almost forgotten document depicting life in prerevolutionary America during the period when religious enthusiasm swept the colonial frontier.
		He shaped the narrative events to fit his own needs, presenting Brainerd as an example of a man who by example and deed opposed the rationalist, Arminian stance.
		Because the Yale edition is the first to print that portion of Brainerd's manuscript that survives, set in parallel columns with Edwards' text, these alterations can readily be discerned.

		In the process, however, as Norman Pettit has shown, Edwards omitted many portions of Brainerd’s diary to prevent the public from knowing about the emotional extremes he experienced, so that he would not be dismissed as an “enthusiast” or as melancholic.
		The Life of David Brainerd, as scholar Joseph Conforti notes, is Edwards’s “most popular work’; it has never been out of print.
