Few More Words: In Support of No. 90 of the Tracts for the Times examines the long debate over church authority, Scripture, and tradition in Anglican thought. This volume presents a thoughtful defense of how ancient church practice and the Word of God are weighed in reforming and guiding a Christian community.

This edition engages with historical arguments surrounding General Councils, the role of Scripture, and the authority of church fathers. It lays out how reformers and later Anglican thinkers navigated between historic Christian tradition and private judgment, offering a window into 16th‑ and 19th‑century debates about what counts as true doctrine.


  • Explains how authority is understood within Scripture and tradition.

  • Shows how reformers referenced early church writings and patristic authorities.

  • Discusses the tension between collective church decisions and individual conscience.

  • Offers context for Anglican debates about doctrine, authority, and unity.



Ideal for readers of religious history and theology who want to understand how Anglican thought has grappled with authority and interpretation.
