Excerpt from History of the Church of England, Vol. 2: From the Abolition of the Roman Jurisdiction This book is one of the most valuable additions to our ecclesiastical literature. One of its chief merits is that it deals with incidents trivial in themselves, but sometimes ending in momentous transactions, incidents which have been forgotten or passed over by previous historians. It is a book which must strike the most casual observer as the work of a skilful and thoughtful man. There are records which have never been collected in one volume, or series of volumes; nor hitherto given to the world in so able, so painstaking, and so excellent a manner. We consider that this history is one of the most important and valuable books of the dam - Sou London Gazette, March 9th, 1879.
