First published in 1932, The History of the Anglo-Catholic Revival from 1845 is a sober and judicious history of the Catholic Revival in the Church of England by a very well-known Anglo-Catholic scholar with an established reputation. The scope of the book is clearly shown by the chapter headings—The Movement after Newman’s Secession; The Apostolic Succession; The Decisions of the Courts on Doctrine; The Rise of Ritualism; Eucharistic Vestments; Confessions to a Priest; The Treatment of Ritualism; Three Representative Documents of the Revival; The Spiritual Independence of the Church; The Movement in the Twentieth Century; and Conclusion.
W. J. Sparrow Simpson was an English Anglican priest and writer. He was a strong proponent of Anglo-Catholicism and was editor of the High-Church English Church Review in the years before the First World War.
