Philanthropy and the Funding of the Church of England, 1856-1914 (Perspectives in Economic and Social History)

The changing relationship between the church and its supporters is key to understanding changing religious and social attitudes in Victorian Britain.

Using the records of the Anglican Church’s home-missionary organisations, Flew charts the decline in Christian philanthropy and its connection to the growing secularisation of society.
