Lea, Henry Charles (1825–1909)

US historian and publisher. A specialist in medieval and church subjects, he is best known for his History of the Inquisition of the Middle Ages (1888). Lea was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He took an active role in his father's publishing house (1843–80) until he retired to devote himself to his scholarly interests. As an advocate of reforming city government and the civil service, he received many honours in the USA, but as a historian he was better known among European scholars.
