Reviews
A masterly, vivid and original sketch, not just of the history but of the culture (or cultures) of the Church of England across nearly five centuries. It will win the respect and gratitude of specialists, while being compelling reading for a much wider public concerned to understand the collective imagination and memory of England -- Rowan Williams, poet and former Archbishop of Canterbury
Dazzling ... To write a history of the Church of England in one volume of 382 pages of text is a substantial challenge; to have done so successfully and with admirable clarity is no mean feat -- Revd William Davage * Catholic Herald *
Excellent ... will be read and enjoyed by anyone who wants to understand the history of England -- Jeremy Harvey * Transforming Ministry Magazine *
