Book Synopsis
Deriving from a rare copy of the ""Elizabethan Prayer Book,"" the author modernized spelling and punctuation but took care not to distort the style and cadence of the Elizabethan text. To place the Prayer Book in its original cultural setting, he wrote a lengthy critical essay that traces the book's history and use during the sixteenth century.
