This book presents an analysis of the longstanding relationship between the state and the church in England as part of a series of explorations into the rights and responsibilities of English citizens. It focuses on the two established churches in Britain: The Church of England and the Presbyterian Church of Scotland. The author provides an historical account of these institutions, explaining how they came to be established by law. As a work of its time, this book notably precedes the disestablishment of the Irish Church, but remains valuable for its discussion of the position and privileges of state churches in the 19th century. The author also explains how the Reformation impacted the established churches, as well as the influential figures who've played roles in their histories. The book concludes with a discussion of the potential end of the state church system and whether the churches of England and Scotland can maintain their national character while continuing to modernize and reform.
