Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Saints and Missionaries of the Anglo-Saxon Era
The object of this work is not controversial. It is written rather in the firm hope that god, in His own good time, and in His own good way, may so guide the future as to re-unite the Church's divided members. Yet, though not written with any contro versial view, these pages will shew how careful the English Church was in her earlier days to maintain her own proper national rights, while yet reverencing the claims of authority due to the Catholic Com munion at large, and this with special regard to Rome, from whence she had received such great benefits.
It is hoped that this volume, while awakening interest in our early history, will enable many to see how far back our annals reach, and how deep the roots that have been laid, as well as under what difficulties so many of highest and purest faith have been god's chosen instruments in building up the Catholic Communion in our land.
That god's blessing may rest on his friend's work is the earnest desire of the undersigned.
