- About this book
-
This book reveals the huge sales and propagandist potential of Anglican parish magazines, while demonstrating the Anglican Church's misunderstanding of the real issues at its heart, and its collective collapse of confidence as it contemplated social change.

-
“In this attractive and persuasive volume, Jane Platt seeks to redress the balance and to reclaim this literature as worthy of scholarly attention. … These voices from Anglicanism in the parishes deserve to be heard, and this volume is to be applauded for bringing such a rich archival source back on to the scholarly agenda.” (Andrew Atherstone, Journal of Ecclesiastical History, Vol. 68 (1), January, 2017)
