Faith, conscience, and exile reshaped the spiritual life of Yorkshire in the turbulent years after the Restoration. In Yorkshire Puritanism and Early Nonconformity, Bryan Dale traces the fate of the ministers silenced and cast out in 1660 and 1662, setting their stories against the wider currents of English Puritanism history and the Great Ejection of 1662. These were costly convictions. Through vivid biographical sketches, rich local detail, and a sure grasp of church history, Dale offers a religious history study that doubles as an intimate portrait of seventeenth-century Yorkshire, its parishes, and the stubborn courage of its clergy. First published in the nineteenth century, this classic of studies in English dissent illuminates early English nonconformity in Restoration-era England with a particular focus on the biographies of ejected ministers and the congregations that grew around them. It stands as a valuable church history reference, rich in detail for church historians yet accessible enough for general readers of historical biography, and a dependable reference for theology students exploring the roots of Nonconformist identity. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure, ideal for any Puritan church history collection or classic library of religious heritage.
