Ecclesiastical history of the nineteenth century, and of other periods where records are plentiful, can be written on three main levels. It can and has been studied at national level in broad movements and through the activities of prominent churchmen. It can and has been studied, though less often and less successfully, at diocesan level, in an analysis of visitation returns, in the activities of diocesan bishops and in the work of lesser churchmen. And it can and should more often be written from parochial sources, since it is from them that the effects of national movements can be traced and their success or failure assessed. The task may seem, on the face of it, to be daunting, but the survival of useful material has, in fact, been poor in every diocese, and the total task becomes therefore much more manageable.
