Hamon L'Estrange

Hamon L'Estrange (1605–1660) was an English writer on history, theology and liturgy, of Calvinist views, loyal both to Charles I and the Church of England. Along with Edward Stephens (d. 1706),[1] he contributed to the seventeenth-century revival of interest in ancient liturgies;[2] with John Cosin and Anthony Sparrow he began the genre of commentary on the Book of Common Prayer.[3] He has been confused at times with his father, son and grandson of the same name.
