Religious Dissent (which Dr Routley takes to include all free
Church denominations) is as English an institution as the House of
Commons. That it was not always so is well enough known; why it
became so is not. The Dissenters have never been adept at public
relations, and many who are ignorant of their faith regard them as
an uncomely - though worthy - body of men. This historical portrait
does not paint out their blemishes; but it does give attention to
their virtues. The main purpose is to show the changing nature of
Dissent and what it has dissented against. Dr Routley does not
trace the history of each denomination: he is concerned rather with
the overall pattern of non-conformity. However, he gives special
attention to the early origins of Puritanism and he re-examines in
detail the cultural and intellectual 'Dissent' of the Reformation,
in which the English dissenting tradition has its roots.
