About this Item

pp 355. 'Following his conversion to Anglicanism in his youth, King became one of the most prominent ecclesiastical and political figures of his day. While his political role has been well documented, this book seeks to re-establish his primary concern: how to secure the role of the Church of Ireland as both arbiter and enforcer of moral and social good in Ireland.'.
