Product Description

Eric Kemp was born in 1915. His influence on the life and direction of the Church of England in the latter part of the 20th Century has been immense. A leading light in the Catholic movement in the Church of England, he fought passionately for causes near his heart-most notable with his battle to stop the Church of England ordaining women. At once on of the greatest intellects in the Church of his generation, he was also one of its wisest and gentlest pastors. A diocesan bishop in Chichester for twenty eight years, there are few key people in the Church life that Bishop Kemp has not known personally. In the pages of this book are charming and perceptive reminiscences of a huge variety of people including Michael Ramsey, Robert Runcie and his celebrated predecessor in Chichester, Bishop George Bell. This book is essential reading for anyone interested in the recent history of the Church of England and provides many keys to where it may be heading in the future.
