Book Overview

""Letter to John Bright, Respecting the Irish Church"" is a book written by Henry Earl Grey in 1868. The book is a letter addressed to John Bright, a British politician and one of the leading figures in the campaign for the disestablishment of the Church of Ireland.

He also discusses the political implications of disestablishment and the potential benefits for both Ireland and Britain.
