J.C. Ryle was the first Anglican bishop of Liverpool.  Ryle was educated at Christ Church, Oxford where he was also a gifted athlete who played cricket and rowed.  Ryle was born to a wealthy family and it seemed likely that he would have a career in politics before joining the ministry.  Ryle was ordained in 1842.

Ryle supported the evangelical school and was a strong critic of Ritualism.  Ryle was a writer as well as a pastor.  Ryle’s writing strongly advocates his beliefs yet has a comforting disposition for the reader.  This edition of Ryle’s Classic Works includes a working table of contents.
