The Nonjurors: Their Lives Principles and Writings (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from The Nonjurors: Their Lives Principles and Writings<br><br>IT has been my aim in this book to disentangle as far as possible the ecclesiastical from the political question to trace the history of the Nonjurors as a religious community from the time of their temporary alienation from to the time of their reabsorption in the old Church of England of which they contended that they had always been the most consistent and faithful mem bers; to give the reader a clear and definite impression of the personalities of all the chief actors; and finally to bring into prominence the later phase of the movement which appears to be little known though it certainly has a distinct interest of its own.<br><br>About the Publisher<br><br>Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
