Originally published in 1907, this book contains a biography of the
historian and clergyman Gilbert Burnet, Bishop of Salisbury. The
book is divided into two parts, focussing first on Burnet's early
life and career in Scotland and then on his rise and fall and rise
again under the Stuart monarchs. The language used is accessible,
and the authors express the hope that 'this picture of a varied
career, and a vivacious personality, may attract the general
reader, as well as the historical student'. This book will be of
value to anyone with an interest in the history of religion in
England or the life of Burnet.
