A probing study. NORTHERN HISTORY [A] masterful and useful study. ANGLICAN AND EPISCOPALGlickman's own work brilliantly succeeds in re-integrating English Catholics into their wider transnational confessional world. [...] We are presented with a nuanced and convincing portrait of a Catholic community torn between different imperatives. [It] is a major achievement. The maturity of judgement on display is rare in a first book [...] The English Catholic Community immediately becomes the core monograph for its subject. ENGLISH HISTORICAL REVIEW Detailed, well informed, and fast paced. It adds a vitally important dimension to what is already known about eighteenth-century English Catholicism. JOURNAL OF BRITISH STUDIES This important book breaks new ground. [...] This well-written and sympathetic study offers a brilliant insight into an often forgotten Catholic world, and in doing so makes a vital contribution to late seventeenth- and early eighteenth-century English history. JOURNAL OF ECCLESIASTICAL HISTORY This is an outstanding and clever book which provides a definitive treatment of English Catholicism and its relation to Jacobitism in the much neglected first half of the eighteenth century. [...] Never before has the story of such complexity and European breadth been narrated. ROYAL STUART JOURNAL Based on a wide reading of primary sources, and displaying a firm command of the subject's historiography, it is an extremely thorough, well-written, subtle and interesting study.

HISTORY An extraordinarily complex account and analysis, based on extensive scholarly research in manuscript holdings as well as printed texts that are difficult to locate. [...] This is an important book on a neglected subject and it brings much that is new both by way of material and interpretation. H-WRBIA triumph of archival recovery. [Glickman's] novel monograph is likely to produce a significant shift in perspectives on this period. TLSAn important study of both the vigorous survival of recusant Catholicism in Britain and its considerable influence on the wider Jacobite community. It is, moreover, a nicely produced book.
