  An informative portrait of the modern Church of England, this book traces the process by which the Church grew more independent of the State, stronger in its relations with other Churches, more flexible in its worship, and more democratic in its government and ministry. Whether it is the reorganization of city and country parish life after the war, or the more sensational moral and theological problems of the '60s, or the heart-searching discussions over the ordination of women, Welsby recounts all the absorbing events of the past forty years with sound judgment and impartiality.
