High Calvinists in Action: Calvinism and the City, Manchester and London, 1810-1860

Shaw shows that high Calvinists played a vigorous and successful part in the response of early 19th-century churches to urbanization. He presents six detailed case studies of ministers and their churches in Manchester and London, revealing detailed social analysis of the congregations. His book is a valuable contribution to the debate about the relation of religion to the modern city.
