Excerpt from From Hearth to Cloister in the Reign of Charles II: A Narrative of Sir John and Lady Warner's So-Much-Wondered-at Resolutions to Leave the Anglican Church and to Enter the Religious LifeThe Life Of Lady Warner was first published in 1690, twenty years after her death in the Convent of the Poor Clares at Gravelines, yet within the lifetime of her husband, as is evident from a remark in the preface to the second edition, 1692, where Sir John Warner is spoken of as one who is yet living. It was published anonymously By a Catholic Gentleman, With' a courtly dedication to the Queen (mary d'este of Modena). This Life, re markable in many ways, shows incidentally the divergence of belief which existed within the Church Of England as far back as the reign of Charles II.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
