The author chronicles the re-establishment and controversies of the national church in the Restoration era, surveying institutional reforms and legislative actions that reshaped ecclesiastical governance. He draws on state papers, parliamentary records, diaries, and unpublished manuscripts to reconstruct patronage, prosecutions, and administrative practice. The narrative examines relations between the established church and dissenting groups, portraying enforcement, concessions, and the social tensions that accompanied religious settlement while attending to everyday devotional life across communities. The work concludes with analysis of contemporary theological publications and appended documentary materials that illustrate changes in worship, discipline, and public sentiment.
