Reconciling People Covent Cathedrals Sto Paperback

Not just the story of a Cathedral as in one of the popular guide books, but hardly surprising when we are talking of Coventry Cathedral, the first newly built cathedral in post-war Britain and a building symbolic of the horrors of World War II and the resulting destruction across Europe. The book covers not just the reconstruction of this iconic memorial, but also much more about its life, meaning and message. There are a range of contributors both clergy and lay, so their contributions cover many aspects from many angles. The aspects you would expect about the re-construction, but also about the city itself; the life of a cathedral, not only the liturgy, theology, music, ecumenism, but the practical tasks from embroidery to chair repairs. Then, as to be expected, the massive ministry of reconciliation that has become a symbol of the Cathedral and which has spread in both practical and spiritual means across Europe and beyond. A book to give hope and an incentive to work for peace.
