"A Second Letter on the late Post Office Agitation" by C. J. Vaughan is a compelling exploration of a 19th-century debate surrounding the London Post Office's Sunday operations, addressing societal and religious tensions of the time. The book centers on Vaughan's defense of new Post Office policies; policies that faced strong criticism for supposedly undermining the sanctity of the Christian Sabbath. Vaughan claims that the changes would improve postal operations and consequently, personal religious practices. He carefully dissects and responds to the objections raised by those critical of the changes made at the Post Office, focusing specifically the practical implications of these changes while advocating for a balanced approach that considers both the common good and religious observance.
