Media Reviews
'Professor Burgess' claim that the Restoration of 1660 witnessed the end of Britain's wars of religion, preparing the way for the merging of the confessional state with the Enlightenment world, is one we should take seriously.' - Andrew Hadfield, Times Literary Supplement '[T]he individual discussions of political texts are balanced, sensible and satisfying... The book does a solid job of making its readers acquainted with the numerous particular figures it discusses.' - John F. McDiarmid, The Journal of Ecclesiastical History
