The Elizabethan Parish in its Ecclesiastical and Financial Aspects

** "The Elizabethan Parish in its Ecclesiastical and Financial Aspects" by Sedley Lynch Ware, is a historical examination of how religious leadership and money matters were connected in English parishes during Queen Elizabeth's time. The book shines a light on the ways these local churches helped their communities and were governed, especially during a time of big changes. It explains how church leaders and regular members worked together to make sure everyone followed both religious and community rules, using church courts to enforce these rules, including going to church, taking care of church buildings, and managing money. The book focuses on how the church affected everyday life during that time. **
