This book examines key events such as the Catholic Emancipation Act of 1829, which granted freedom to Catholics, and the re-establishment of the Catholic hierarchy in England. It examines how this revival reshaped the Catholic Church in England and how its impact was felt in society at large. It also presents the Catholic Church's struggle against anti-Catholic sentiment and its efforts to achieve religious freedom amidst the backdrop of industrialization and urbanization. Thureau-Dangin also provides an in-depth analysis of various aspects of this revival, including the formation of new religious institutions and orders, and the role of Catholic education and missions.
