Lathbury, Thomas
Gunpowder Plot, 1605
THE STATE OF POPERY AND JESUITISM IN ENGLAND, from the Reformation to
the Period of the Roman Catholic Relief Bill in 1829.
“We consider this little book to be exceedingly well timed, and highly
deserving of perusal by all who are willing to understand the machinery
which the Church of Rome puts in motion for the advancement of its
cause.”—_Times._
“A clear and practical development of the subtle workings of
Popery.”—_Church of England Quarterly Review._
“An opportune and very interesting work.”—_Conservative Journal and
Church of England Gazette._
“A useful volume of reference for the series of historical events
connected with the subject.”—_British Critic._
“We do not know a modern work of the same size more opportune or more
valuable.”—_Frazer’s Magazine._
By the same, One Vol. 8vo. Price 12s.
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._
Also, Price 3d., or 25 for 5s.
PROTESTANTISM THE OLD RELIGION, POPERY THE NEW. (Sixth Thousand).
“An admirable tract.”—_Church of England Quarterly Review._
“It cannot be too widely circulated.”—_Somerset Constitutional and Bath
Post._
“A tract which ought to be distributed in tens of thousands.”—_Felix
Farley’s Bristol Journal._
