Excerpt from Christopher Wordsworth: Bishop of Lincoln 1807-1885It may seem to some that a comparatively small space has been allotted to some very important subjects, but the work has not been intended to supersede, but to supplement that which the Bishop has himself left behind him in his various publica tions. To go thoroughly into all the events in which he took a leading part would practically be to write the history of the Church of England for the last fifty years.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
