Numbers that reveal social truth. Abridged from Horace Mann's official report of the census of England and Wales 1851 on religious worship, this careful edition lays out church attendance statistics and denominational returns with clarity and minimal editorial interference. As a British census report and religious demographics study, the material offers systematic figures to complement narrative sources and to test assumptions about the reach, decline or revival of congregational life in mid-Victorian Britain. Local returns and regional tables make it possible to compare urban and rural practice, to see denominational strength and the distribution of worship across parishes and industrial centres, and to observe trends that ripple through nineteenth-century England religion. For family historians the volume functions as a practical genealogy reference book, directing searches toward places of worship and patterns of attendance recorded at the time; for demographers and scholars it is an academic research resource whose raw figures anchor investigations into attendance, affiliation and the social role of religion. Because the data were gathered as an official government survey for public record, the report endures as a primary source of significance in Victorian religious history and Victorian social history, supplying evidence that continues to inform scholarship on education, civic life and community organisation. At once precise and human, the account rewards close study and casual browsing alike, deepening any library devoted to social sources, historical church records or the lived experience of Victorian era worship, and it appeals equally to casual readers and classic-literature collectors. Curious readers and specialist scholars alike find fresh perspectives within the numbers. Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today - a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Horace Mann\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9354304990\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789354304996\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Alpha Edition\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/02\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 160\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.85lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.00h x 8.50w x 0.34d","brand":"Horace Mann","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48446599135487,"sku":"9789354304996","price":29.82,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e66281c3-0e88-40f0-aac1-8afe68b9c143.jpg?v=1777225705","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/census-of-great-britain-1851-horace-mann-9789354304996","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
