Along the way, he meets a variety of characters, including a sympathetic priest, a wealthy merchant, and a fellow gospeller who becomes his friend and mentor.The novel explores themes of religious freedom, social justice, and the struggle between the powerful and the powerless. It also provides a vivid portrayal of life in medieval England, including the customs, beliefs, and conflicts of the time.Overall, Gilbert Wright, The Gospeller: A Tale Of The Lollards is a gripping and thought-provoking historical novel that offers insight into an important period of English history and the people who fought for their beliefs and values.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
