Sydney Anglicans

From its origins as a convict chaplaincy to the challenges of expansion today, Sydney Diocese has grown through turbulent years of Church-State controversy and the traumas of economic depression and war. Throughout all those years, as well as in times of peace and prosperity, the Diocese sought to promote the Gospel with vigour and commitment. Sydney Anglicans charts this growth in a colourful and lively way.This book is in many ways a pioneer essay in understanding Sydney Anglicans. It will provide a clear and readable history with a human perspective. Here is a solid framework for considering the diocese''s future life from the focus of its bicentenary.
