Rowan Strong's volume serves as a critical component of the Oxford History of Anglicanism series, linking the early foundations of the Church of England with its 19th-century global expansion and adaptation. The volume addresses the complex narratives of Anglicanism amidst increasing religious pluralism following key legal changes in the late 1820s, showcasing the dynamic nature of Anglican identities through various contributors who explore themes such as church-state relations, partisan conflicts, and the church's global outreach, particularly in the face of industrialization and changing societal norms.
