The Journal of William Dowsing of Stratford is a historical book that documents the activities of William Dowsing, a parliamentary visitor appointed under a warrant from the Earl of Manchester. The book was first published in 1885 and is a compilation of Dowsing's journal entries, which detail his visits to churches and other religious establishments in East Anglia during the English Civil War. Dowsing's mission was to remove any remaining vestiges of Catholicism and other forms of religious iconography from these buildings, in accordance with the Puritan beliefs of the time. The book provides a fascinating insight into the religious and political upheaval of the period and is an invaluable resource for anyone interested in the history of the English Civil War and its impact on religion in England.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
