  Written in the form of letters from priests from the past who served in the same country parish (St Georges, Rollesby, Norfolk), this book includes their observations about life both national and local. Their views on political, social and ecclesiastical matters constitutes a commentary on nearly 1000 years of history. From Walter Rugg 1160 under the reign of Henry II, and including Simon Babingley 1361-1377 under Edward III, through William Adams 1708-1721 under Queen Anne, all the way up to Andrew Sangster who joined the parish in 1999 and still resides there today.
