This 1877 volume contains one of Arnold’s most scathing attacks on the established church, ‚The Church of England.‘ He berates the clergy for championing the interests of the wealthy and powerful and neglecting the poor and downtrodden. The essay was originally delivered as an address to the London clergy.
