Much of the historical work on the nineteenth century has been historical writing "from above": many historians have been far more interested in what John Keble may have said to John Henry Newman when strolling across the quad of Oriel College. This work seeks to investigate what the poorest of the poor believed and how evangelicals (both within and outside the Church of England) sought to win them to Christian faith. In doing so it focusses on three key societies that took the lead in this work and sets these societies in the larger social, ecclesiastical and political settings of the day.
