Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

""A Review of the Case of the Protestant Dissenters: With Reference to the Corporation and Test Acts"" is a historical book written by Samuel Horsley in 1790. The book provides an in-depth analysis and review of the legal case of the Protestant Dissenters, who were a group of Christians who did not conform to the Church of England's practices and beliefs. Horsley examines the Corporation and Test Acts, which were laws that required public officials to take oaths of allegiance to the Church of England and conform to its practices. The book explores the history of the Acts and their impact on the Protestant Dissenters, who were excluded from public office and faced discrimination. Horsley argues that the Acts were unjust and unconstitutional, and he advocates for their repeal. The book is a significant work of legal and religious history, shedding light on the struggles of religious minorities in England during the 18th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
