A new biography of Beddome by Stephen Pickles has been published by The James Bourne Society. It is distributed by the Huntingtonian Press. The book is a hardback and makes use of Beddome's hymns and letters to spell out the story. It grows out of a lecture given in 2017 in rural Wiltshire. The current blurb claims that Beddome wrote a catechism for his congregation, which is not quite right. Probably a slip. So like the proverbial London bus, along come two at once - this one and the briefer David Luke. I am assuming Mr Pickles work is substantial. I see it has 471 pages. More here.
