A Sect That Moved The World: Three Generations Of Clapham Saints And Philanthropists is a book written by John Telford. The book explores the lives of a group of individuals known as the Clapham Sect, who were a group of evangelical Christians who lived in Clapham, London during the late 18th and early 19th centuries. The Clapham Sect were known for their dedication to social reform and philanthropy, and their influence on British society was significant. The book focuses on three generations of Clapham Saints and philanthropists, beginning with the founder of the group, Henry Thornton, and his circle of friends, including William Wilberforce, who was instrumental in the abolition of the slave trade. The book also explores the lives of the second and third generations of the Clapham Sect, including Zachary Macaulay, James Stephen, and Thomas Babington Macaulay. Throughout the book, Telford examines the impact of the Clapham Sect on British society, including their involvement in social reform movements such as the abolition of the slave trade, the establishment of free trade, and the promotion of missionary work. The book also looks at the personal lives of the members of the Clapham Sect, including their families, friendships, and religious beliefs. Overall, A Sect That Moved The World provides a comprehensive look at the Clapham Sect and their influence on British society during a period of significant social and political change. It is a fascinating read for anyone interested in British history, social reform, and philanthropy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
