A well-known Victorian evangelical clergyman, he wrote practical religious books and sermons shaped by decades of parish work in Tunbridge Wells. His writing is direct, earnest, and closely tied to the religious debates of 19th-century England.

Born in 1812, Edward Hoare became an influential Church of England clergyman and religious writer. He served for many years as vicar of Holy Trinity, Tunbridge Wells, and was also an honorary canon of Canterbury.
Alongside his ministry, he published sermons, devotional works, and religious arguments intended for ordinary readers. His books include Sanctification, Witnesses to Truth, Rome, Turkey & Jerusalem, and shorter pieces such as Evolution, showing how closely his writing engaged with the theological and cultural controversies of his time.
Hoare died in 1894. A memoir published soon afterward, Edward Hoare, M.A.: A Record of His Life Based Upon a Brief Autobiography, helps preserve the story of a writer remembered for clear evangelical conviction, steady pastoral work, and a strong public presence in Victorian religious life.
