An Historical Account of the Rise and Development of Presbyterianism in Scotland
Originally published during the early part of the twentieth century, the Cambridge Manuals of Science and Literature were designed to provide concise introductions to a broad range of topics. They were written by experts for the general reader and combined a comprehensive approach to knowledge with an emphasis on accessibility. First published in 1911, this small volume by Lord Balfour of Burleigh traces the history and development of Presbyterianism in Scotland from the sixteenth to the twentieth century.
