Excerpt from Church and State in England Wales: 1829 1906
Dear sir, - I have just finished your book, Priests and People,' and I feel that every true follower Of Christ owes you a debt of thanks. But I especially do so, for it may, please God, prove a most valuable weapon in my hands to bring back and save from the priests of Rome my dear young son, whom they have entrapped and carried Off to the English College at without allowing him to come home to take leave of his mother. This was done just a year ago, and he is coming home for a holiday at my urgent request (and of course at my expense), in July or August next, for two months.
He was on the point Of going to Oxford, and I had hoped he would have been eventually ordained in the English Church. He is young (now years), impressionable, enthusiastic; and, being a gentleman and well educated, will no doubt be a valuable prize for the priesthood, unless I can save him from that fate.

Excerpt from Church and State in England Wales: 1829 1906
The widespread circulation of "Priests and People in Ireland" brought its author into contact with Christians of every denomination, not only in the United Kingdom but in the most distant colonies. The correspondence which he received comprised thousands of letters from people of all conditions - day-labourers, artisans, shopkeepers, professional men, clergymen of all creeds, politicians, Church dignitaries, and members of the nobility. The burden of all the letters was the same, namely, that the spread of priestcraft is undermining the national character, not only in Ireland but in England, where its influence is not more perceptible in the churches than in the public schools and universities.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book chronicles the complexities of the Church of England from the relief of Roman Catholic disabilities in 1829 to the passing of education acts in the early 20th century. The author begins by highlighting the existential threat the established church perceived from the growing intellectualism of the middle class and the rise of the Irish Catholic hierarchy. At the same time, the established church embarked upon a series of initiatives designed to protect its position, leading to controversies over its role in education, its opaque finances, and the ritualism of its clergy. The book explores the theme of sacerdotalism - the idea that the clergy are mediators between God and man - as a growing force within the Church of England and a source of tension with both the state and other Christian denominations. The author, himself a former Roman Catholic priest, identifies priests like John Henry Newman as the architects of this trend, who sought to revive medieval Catholic practices within the Anglican church. The book concludes by assessing the resilience of the Church of England in the face of these challenges and its adaptation to survive as a state-backed institution in a rapidly changing society.
