The book that carried German pietist universalism to America. 'Paul Siegvolck' was the pseudonym of Georg Klein-Nicolai, whose treatise on the finally universal reach of redemption circulated among the radical pietists of the Rhineland; translated into English and printed at Germantown, Pennsylvania in 1753, it spread among the German Baptists and their neighbors decades before John Murray landed. Elhanan Winchester credited it with helping convince him of the universal restoration — making this modest volume a common ancestor of much American universalism.
