A Life of Gilbert Burnet, Bishop of Salisbury is a biography written by T. E. S. Clarke that chronicles the life of Gilbert Burnet, a prominent figure in 17th century English history.

The book covers Burnet's early life and education, his rise to prominence as a preacher and theologian, and his involvement in political and religious controversies of the time. It also delves into Burnet's personal life, including his marriage and relationships with other prominent figures of the era. Throughout the book, Clarke provides detailed analysis and commentary on Burnet's writings, sermons, and political activities, offering insights into his beliefs and motivations. The biography is well-researched and provides a comprehensive overview of Burnet's life and legacy, making it an essential read for anyone interested in the history of 17th century England.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
