The Rise and Fall of the High Commission is a historical book written by Roland Greene Usher in 1913. The book explores the history of the High Commission, an institution established by Queen Elizabeth I in 1559 to oversee the Church of England and enforce religious conformity. Usher traces the development of the High Commission from its inception, through its peak in the 17th century, to its eventual decline and abolition in the 19th century. The book provides a detailed analysis of the High Commission's role in English history, including its impact on religious and political affairs. Usher also examines the controversies surrounding the High Commission, particularly its use of torture and other forms of coercion to enforce conformity. The Rise and Fall of the High Commission is a valuable resource for scholars and students of English history, particularly those interested in the role of religion in shaping political institutions. It offers a comprehensive and insightful account of a key institution in English history and sheds light on the complex relationship between religion and politics in early modern England.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
