Reviews

There are rich pickings for many of the parishes of Lincolnshire, but also some valuable illustrations of themes in rural history extending far beyond that county. [...] This is a model record society volume that deserves to be widely used outside its county.
*JOURNAL OF RURAL HISTORY*

For historians of rural, mid-nineteenth-century Anglicanism, it seems all roads lead not to Rome but to the doors of the Lincoln Record Office. [...] Ambler's edition will of course be of great use to historians of Lincolnshire, not least through the inclusion of a new handlist of the Lincolnshire correspondence in the archives as an appendix.
*ENGLISH HISTORICAL REVIEW*

A formidably academic book. [...] The editor's introduction summarises Kaye's life and career, and the scope of the correspondence, with admirable clarity, and puts everything into a comprehensible context.
*CHURCH TIMES*

A gold mine. [...] The potted biographies of all parties mentioned which appear in the feast of footnotes are alone worth the price of this extraordinary book, a staple for years to come on every local historian's bookshelf. And what an index!
*GRIMSBY TELEGRAPH*

This collection is a valuable addition to the documents on the Church of England in the nineteenth century.
*THE LOCAL HISTORIAN*
