We explore one reason for the remarkable industrial peace experienced by Britain during the Industrial Revolution.   Peterloo, Luddites and Chartists, saw bodies, but in such small amounts that it was nothing compared to the French Revolution, 1848 and other episodes of repression.

Anglican latitudinarianism resulted in a somewhat boring religion for the lower classes, that ignored the excitement of Christ's love.  The Evangelical Revival, known as the Great Awakening in the US, stepped right in.

We pay most of our attention to the Methodists, covering John Wesley's conversion and the Methodist approach to the poor.
