Beskrivning
Examines and analyses the failure of the established Church in 19th-century Wales to retain the allegiance of the Welsh by appointing English speaking Anglo-Welsh bishops who failed to understand the character and spirituality of the Welsh. As a result, there was a demand for the appointment of Welsh-speakers as bishops for the four Welsh sees.

Recensioner i media
This book is likely to interest a far wider readership than Welsh people or ecclesiastical historians. The author, a busy parish priest as well as a distinguished academic, describes with skill and verve the many issues with which successive premiers had to come to gripsIt makes for an enthralling ,if sometimes unedifying, narrative'.
