Nonconformist Conscience (Routledge Library Editions: Political Science Volume 19) - Bebbington, D. W. (Stirling University, UK)

The 'Nonconformist conscience' was a major force in late Victorian and Edwardian politics. This book analyses the political impact of the Nonconformists at the peak of their strength when they were near the centre of key debates of the time over such matters as the growth of the British Empire and state provision of social services.
