Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from An Ecclesiastical History From the Thirteenth to the Nineteenth Century
The author cannot close this preface without referring with gratification to the kindly notices which have been given of the first volume by the press, and to the warmer private commendations which have reached him from many of his clerical brethren. Nor can he consent to send it forth without the renewal of the perhaps unnecessary remark that he advances for the work no higher claim than that of an honest compilation.
