""A Letter to the King: On the Repeal of the Test and Corporation Laws, as it Affects Our Christian Monarchy"" is a political treatise written by Edward Irving in 1828. The book is a call for the repeal of the Test and Corporation Acts, which were discriminatory laws that required certain public officials to be members of the Church of England. Irving argues that these laws are unjust and unconstitutional, and that they undermine the principles of religious freedom and equality. He also contends that the laws are harmful to the monarchy, as they create divisions and tensions within society. The book is written in a persuasive and passionate style, and is intended to influence public opinion and political decision-making. Overall, ""A Letter to the King"" is an important historical document that sheds light on the struggle for religious freedom and civil rights in 19th century Britain.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
