Description: "Well over a century and a half after its high point, the Oxford Movement continues to stand out as a powerful example of religion in action. Led by four young Oxford dons - John Henry Newman, John Keble, Richard Hurrell Froude, and Edward Pusey - this renewal movement within the Church of England was a central event in the political, religious, and social life of the early Victorian era. This book offers an up-to-date and highly accessible overview of the Oxford Movement."--BOOK JACKET.
