An Apology Of An Appeal: Also An Epistle To The True-Hearted Nobility (1636) - Paperback

An Apology of an Appeal: Also an Epistle to the True-Hearted Nobility is a book written by Henry Burton in 1636. The book is a defense of Burton's appeal to the House of Lords against the unjust treatment he received from the Court of High Commission. Burton was a Puritan minister who was accused of speaking out against the Church of England and was subsequently punished by the Court of High Commission. In the book, Burton argues that he was unfairly treated and that his appeal to the House of Lords was a just and necessary action. He also addresses the true-hearted nobility, calling on them to support his cause and fight against the tyranny of the Court of High Commission. The book is a powerful and passionate defense of religious freedom and individual rights, and it provides insight into the religious and political climate of 17th century England.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
