'The cumulative thrust of this volume of essays is one that requires a rethink on the part of conservative Reformed Protestants. Since the early nineteenth century, our tradition has been supplied with a steady stream of Puritan reprints—all bearing the implication that it was through this line of succession that the future of the English Reformed heritage was ensured, especially after the ejection of nonconforming ministers in 1662. This collection of essays, and the growing body of research reflected in them, demonstrates the utter inadequacy of this research reflected in them, demonstrates the utter inadequacy of this long-established assumption. The transmission and survival of English Reformed thought must be freshly calibrated.'
