An important contribution to the understanding of twentieth-century Anglicanism and evangelicalism
This excellent collaborative volume.does much to redress previous neglect of 20th-century Anglican Evangelicalism by historians.
To understand Welby and Wright (and much else about contemporary Anglicanism) you need to read this book. This volume is a collection by leading historians which digs deep into the subject matter. There is a strong case for arguing that Anglicans are especially ignorant of our recent history. This book is a serious help in remedying that deficiency.
