Focusing on a pivotal period in British history, the book examines the transformation of religious reform into political revolution. It aims to unify pre-revolutionary historiography, emphasizing conformity and separatism from the established church, while also addressing the post-1642 divide between Presbyterian and Independent perspectives. Additionally, it explores contemporary ideas of religious tolerance, providing a comprehensive analysis of the complex interplay between faith and politics during this transformative era.
