Trade Review
John Broad is to be congratulated on publishing these two volumes of Bishop Williams Wake's summary of his visitation returns while Bishop of london (1705-1716). This is a monumental piece of work for anyone, particularly given the size of the diocese of London in the eighteenth century ... a monumental work of scholarship and much be commended. * Phillip Tovey, ANAPHORA, The Journal of the Society for Liturgical Study *
Browsing through the two volumes, the amount of work completed [...] is astounding. * Heather Falvey, Journal of Continuity and Change *
