Author Description

Despite the significance of this Age for Evangelical Anglicans, surprisingly little has been written. Evangelical Anglicans in a Revolutionary Age seeks to restore the balance. Based on a wide range of primary sources - sermons, tracts, private correspondence, newspapers and journals - Nigel Scotland presents an extensive study of life in this era. Evangelical Anglicans and social action, theology, education, culture, politics and mission are dealt with. Particular attention is also given to prominent individuals such as Charles Simeon, John Sumner, Spencer Perceval and Josephine Butler in this extensive study that celebrates the rising number of Evangelical Anglicans in the Revolutionary Age.
