The Englishman's Library
''The Englishman's Library'' was an English book series of the 1840s, a venture of the publisher James Burns. It ran eventually to 31 volumes.
The title had been used already in 1824, for ''The Englishman's library'', edited by E. H. L., published by Charles Knight. The series was announced in ambitious fashion in the ''British Critic''. It was started by William Gresley and Edward Churton, with propagandistic aims; the works are still a source for the "condition of England" debate of the time. Gresley wrote six novels for the series.
==Aims==
According to its prospectus, the Library aimed to "unite a popular style with sound Christian principles". The announced authors did not in fact all contribute.
Those behind the series were younger High Church men who wished to imitate some of the success of the ''Tracts for the Times''. They were less hostile to the Tractarians than older, more orthodox members of the Hackney Phalanx.
