Reviews

Bishops, Saints and Politics is a timely and far-reaching collection of essays by one of the most accomplished scholars of historical theology in Anglicanism...There are thus very important lessons in these stories for those of us who, while we might not be English men, are seeking to live faithfully with the differences now embodied in the contemporary world-wide Anglican Communion. - Rev. Ian T. Douglas, Ph.D., Angus Dun Professor of Mission and World Christianity, Episcopal Divinity School, USA--The Rev. Ian T. Douglas, Ph.D., Angus Dun Professor of Mission and World Christianity, Episcopal Divinity School, USA

As an example of the creative and sensitive use of both history and historical theology, this book is a significant achievement.--Sanford Lakoff
