A HISTORY OF THE ENGLISH EPISCOPACY, from 1640 to 1662, &c.
“The author has executed his task with very creditable skill, with very laborious research, and with a moderation and impartiality, which entitle him to unqualified commendation. Mr. L. has been abused and misrepresented by one of the organs of that faction which seems to think, that to subvert the constitution, the shortest and most effectual method is by beginning with the Established Church; but will any person of veracity, any person of ordinary decency, say that he has deserved the accusation which the Edinburgh reviewer, with a want of decency peculiarly his own, has brought against him?”—Times.
“A very valuable addition to the ecclesiastical literature of the day.”—British Magazine.
“He tells the tale perspicuously and dispassionately.”—British Critic.
“A book of much interest, and an important addition to our historical knowledge.”—Literary Gazette.
“An admirable and well-digested history.”—Frazer’s Magazine.
“Mr. L. has our thanks for endeavouring to illustrate in a popular form a most interesting period of our church annals.”—Church of England Magazine.
“The sages of the North have traduced him as a malignant. No higher encomium can be desired for any work than to say that it is the production of a writer who has earned such abuse.”—Dublin Christian Examiner.
“An interesting and valuable history.”—Christian Observer.
