Protestant nonconformity was one of the most significant influences
in nineteenth-century Britain, and has rightly received
considerable attention from historians. At both local and national
level much of its influence was channelled through, and inspired
by, the activities and utterances of the professional minister. The
names of the most successful were often household words in the
Victorian period, and most have attracted a biographer. Yet neither
the experiences nor the careers of these pulpit princes were
necessarily those of the typical minister - almost nine thousand of
them in 1900 - who served in the chapels of the main dissenting
denominations. Using simple sampling and statistical techniques,
Kenneth D. Brown sets out to recreate the lives, both private and
professional, of this less celebrated but faithful and more
representative body of men, rescuing them from the anonymity of the
past.
