    About this ebook

    This scholarly volume presents a detailed history of the religious institutions in Preston, Lancashire during the 19th century. Written with a lively and humorous style, the author provides a comprehensive account of the churches, chapels, priests, parsons, congregations, and more. Some of the places discussed in depth are St. George's Church, St. Augustine's Catholic Church, and Quakers' Meeting House. This work not only offers an abundance of historical facts but also incorporates a candid analysis of the institutions and their impact on the community. The author's impartiality is evident throughout the text, as he presents a well-rounded view of each place of worship. This book is a valuable resource for scholars of religion, history, and sociology, as well as anyone interested in the religious landscape of Preston during this period.
