The book is a defense of the Church of England against the criticisms it faced during the Reformation period. It was written during a time of religious turmoil in England, when the Church of England was being challenged by the Roman Catholic Church and various Protestant sects.The book is divided into two parts. The first part presents a historical overview of the Church of England, tracing its origins back to the early Christian church and its development through the medieval period. Jewel argues that the Church of England is the true successor to the early Christian church and that it has remained faithful to the teachings of the apostles.The second part of the book deals with the specific criticisms leveled against the Church of England during the Reformation period.
