Excerpt from Dr. John Walker and the Sufferings of the Clergy The object of the present work is on a far more modest scale. I have attempted to give an account of the circumstances in which the Sufierings of the Clergy was written, the materials of which the author was able to avail himself, and the manner in which he used them. I have not alluded in detail to the points on which his conclusions may be corrected or modified in the light of the fuller information now at our disposal, because, as it seemed to me, the results of such a review could be more suitably embodied in a separate account of the period. My purpose has been rather to indicate the point of View from which Walker set out and his equipment for the task.
