About the Author
David Furse-Roberts holds a PhD from the University of New South Wales where he wrote a thesis on the British social reformer, Lord Shaftesbury (1801-1885), and the evolving character of Victorian Evangelicalism. His thesis explored how the tradition of Anglican Evangelicalism contributed to the life and work of this eminent Victorian statesman. Current research interests include Evangelical church history together with broader religious and political movements of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.
The Rev Dr Ed Loane lectures in Theology and Church History at Moore Theological College, Sydney and is the Warden of St Paul's College, University of Sydney.
