Book Synopsis Philanthropy and the Funding of the Church of England, 1856–1914 by : Sarah Flew
Book excerpt: The changing relationship between the church and its supporters is key to understanding changing religious and social attitudes in Victorian Britain. Using the records of the Anglican Church’s home-missionary organizations, Flew charts the decline in Christian philanthropy and its connection to the growing secularization of society.
