Book Synopsis
This volume consists of five papers selected from a corpus of material researched over the past quarter of a century. None has previously been published, and they represent the author's interest in church history, medical history and the visual arts. Three of the five papers are based on lectures given at conferences or public occasions; the other two derive from research conducted at the Oxford Centre for Methodism and Church History in 2010 and 2020.

Table of Contents

Mission to Emigrants from Liverpool.' '"The Biggest Stink in the World": Thomas Southwood Smith, Social Conscience and London.' 'The Search for the Ideal Male: The Art of Hugh Easton.'
