Review Quotes: "The Oxford History of Anglicanism thus supplies an invaluable study of the Anglican Church's importance and influence for any scholar of these periods, even those not directly engaged with ecclesiastical or religious history." -- Alice J. Soulieux-Evans, Reformation
"As the first comprehensive study of Anglicanism to embrace conflict, rather than shy away from it, Volume 1 makes a major and unprecedented mark on the field, and its utility for scholars working in the period is unmatched." -- Ryan Hackenbracht, Milton Quarterly"Even to someone who is broadly familiar with the territory, the narrative and analysis provided in this volume and its successors frequently prove fresh and thought-provoking, often frankly nothing less than enthralling ... the matters covered in this first volume can be seen as contributing in a formative and decisive way to what eventually became known by the overdetermined, capacious and intriguing label 'Anglicanism'." -- Paul Avis, Theology"This series represents the most comprehensive study of Anglicanism to date. This series will take its place as a vital resource for scholarship and will serve as a milestone in the development of Anglican studies ... it is an extraordinary resource. It synthesizes a wide range of scholarship on Anglicanism. It ought to be the first point of reference for research on any aspect of Anglican history ... This is a collection that belongs in every library dedicated to the study of history and religion." -- Daniel Joslyn-Siemiatkoski, Anglican and Episcopal History
