The biography delves into the life of Augustus Montague Toplady, an enigmatic figure of 18th-century English Christianity, known for authoring a beloved hymn. J. C. Ryle's portrayal captures Toplady's peculiar character, likening him to literary figures like Mr. Hyde and Frankenstein. Despite his oddities, Ryle argues that understanding Toplady is essential for a comprehensive view of the era's religious landscape, suggesting that his uniqueness contributes significantly to the historical narrative of Christianity in England.
