Overview
Open a window onto Episcopal history with the works of nineteenth-century priest William Reed Huntington. A leading advocate for liturgical reform and church unity in America, Huntington was a part of 13 General Conventions, a major voice for the revision of the Book of Common Prayer, and the main figure behind the Chicago-Lambeth Quadrilateral—four statements of Anglican belief aimed at unifying the church, first adopted by the House of Bishops in 1886. This collection gathers a broad swath of Huntington’s work, from the famous The Church Idea, an Essay toward Unity, to books of sermons, to a Short History of the Book of Common Prayer, to Sunday school lessons, to a devotional study of the architecture of the house of God.
