Richard Davis and Revival in Northamptonshire – a review
Stephen Pickles’s Richard Davis and Revival in Northamptonshire offers a valuable exploration of nonconformist life beyond London in the late 17th and early 18th centuries. Focusing on the ministry of Richard Davis, the book traces his influence from Rothwell across a network of satellite meetings that extended into several regions of England. Drawing on both primary and secondary sources, it presents a balanced account of a figure whose effective ministry, published writings, and theological controversies left a lasting—if sometimes complex—legacy.
