"Stimulated by the intellectual ferment of the French Revolution and the evangelical movement, the world of Christian radicalism in the first half of the nineteenth century is reconstructed here with thorough research by Eileen Groth Lyon." "The author tracks the origin and fate of the movement for the first time, from its beginnings in the eighteenth century, through its implementation in the major political agitations of the early and mid-nineteenth century, to its fruition in the achievements of the campaigns for parliamentary, factory and poor law reform. By focusing on the Christian radical programme. Politicians in the Pulpit advances a new understanding of the most important political initiatives of early Victorian Britain."--Jacket
