Read the Introduction by Rev. Robert Maguire, D. D.

Mansoul

"By the town of MANSOUL, as every reader must perceive, is intended the Soul of Man; figuratively represented, throughout this work, as a town. Just commendation is here given of it for the human soul, in its original state, was truly glorious, bearing the holy and happy image of God himself."[1]
