Publisher's Synopsis

Founded in the 19th century, Prior Park College was the dream of Benedictine Bishop Peter Augustine Baines, who believed that the Catholic Church had an acute need for educated priests and an educated laity at that time. Using this as a starting point, Peter Cornwell traces the history of this remarkable institution.
