The Rise and Fall of the High Commission is a historical book written by Roland Greene Usher in 1913. The book details the establishment and eventual dissolution of the High Commission, a governing body established by the British government in the 16th century to oversee the Church of England. Usher provides a comprehensive account of the High Commission's history, including its role in the English Reformation, its use as a tool of political and religious oppression, and its eventual decline in power. The author also examines the various controversies and scandals surrounding the High Commission, including its involvement in the persecution of non-conformists and the infamous Star Chamber trials. The book is a valuable resource for scholars and students of British history, as well as anyone interested in the history of the Church of England and the development of religious and political institutions 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.
