First published in 1974, this book describes the religion of the
East End, the West End, and the suburbs of London, where each
section of society - as well as a variety of immigrant groups - has
its own quarters, its own institutions, its distinctive codes of
behaviour. While the main focus is on ideas, or unconscious
assumptions, rather than institutions, two chapters examine the
part played by the churches in the life of Bethnal Green, a very
poor district, and of Lewisham, a prosperous suburb, and a third
provides a picture of the church-going habits of each part of the
city. The years 1880-1914 mark one of the most important
transitions in English religious history. The latter part of the
book examines the causes and consequences of these changes. This
book will be of interest to students of history, and particularly
those interested in issues of religion and class.
