Description
(CHRISTMAS) A Letter to a Person of Scrupulous Conscience about the time of keeping Christmas, according to the new-stile. To which is added, a dialogue between a clergyman and his parishioner, familiarly explaining the reason and expediency of the new-stile. [By William Parker]. London: R Baldwin, 1753. Small 8vo, [iii] 23pp; disbound. First edition. In 1753 Britain and its colonies transitioned to the Gregorian calendar (here described as the "New Style"), but despite these changes Christmas that year was still celebrated on 25th December.
