New Bedford, (Mass.): John Spooner, 1795. First edition. pp. [1]-96; [binder has mistakenly bound in duplicate signatures B and P (total 4 leaves). 1 vols. 12mo. Sewn in plain blue wrappers, uncut. First edition. pp. [1]-96; [binder has mistakenly bound in duplicate signatures B and P (total 4 leaves). 1 vols. 12mo. West Answers to Jonathan Edwards's Determinism. The first part of West's defense of free will was printed first in 1793 (Evans 26469 ). As West explains in his "Introduction to the Second Part", he was advised by his publisher to wait for a response from Edwards before committing himself to publishing this second part. It consists of four new essays on the subject of free will vs. the Calvinist precepts of Jonathan Edwards. Spooner reprinted the first part on this occasion also (Evans 29873), but the two are separate publications. Evans 29874
