A Biography of Thomas Deacon: The Manchester Non-Juror is a book written by Henry Broxap and published in 1911. The book is a detailed account of the life and times of Thomas Deacon, a prominent figure in the religious and political landscape of Manchester in the early 18th century. Deacon was a Non-Juror, meaning he refused to swear allegiance to the newly crowned King George I, as he believed that the previous monarch, James II, had a rightful claim to the throne. This led to Deacon being ostracized by many in his community, and he became a controversial figure in Manchester. The book delves into Deacon's early life, his religious beliefs, and his involvement in the Non-Juror movement. It also explores his relationships with other prominent figures of the time, such as Bishop William Lloyd and Archbishop Thomas Tenison. Broxap provides a detailed account of Deacon's trial for sedition and his subsequent imprisonment, as well as his eventual release and return to Manchester. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of Manchester, the Non-Juror movement, or the religious and political climate of 18th-century England. It is written in a clear and concise style, making it accessible to both scholars and general readers. Overall, A Biography of Thomas Deacon: The Manchester Non-Juror is a fascinating and informative account of a lesser-known figure in English history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
