Judge not, lest ye be judged. This timeless wisdom has guided the Anglican Church for hundreds of years, fostering a certain tolerance of eccentricity among its members. Good thing, too. The 'Mermaid of Morwenstow' excommunicated a cat for mousing on a Sunday. When he was late for a service, Bishop Lancelot Fleming commandeered a Navy helicopter. 'Mad Jack' swapped his surplice for a leopard skin and insisted on being carried around in a coffin. And then there was the man who, like Noah's evil twin, tried to eat one of each of God's creatures... In spite of all this they saw the church as their true calling. After all, who cares if you're wearing red high heels when there are souls to be saved?… (más)

Moderately amusing anothology of short biographies of colourful characters who have been Church of England clergymen. Some well-known already; others less so. There are a few historical inaccuracies, but as a whole this is a nice book to while away a few hours. Not a substitute for the much better series of books written by Trevor Beeson. ( )

Brief character sketches of Anglican clergyman notable for various reasons.

Some I howled with laughter, some my jaw just dropped, and some I would like to know more about, and some all three! ( )

Wow! I have always known that the Ministry of the Church of England was/is a hiding place for some exceedingly eccentric priests but this wonderfully entertaining book makes clear what and an amazing bunch of blokes have hidden in it. Carefully researched and engagily written it will inform, amaze and entertain you. ( )
