An Anglo-Catholic
Anniversary Compendium edited by
Michael Yelton
In order to mark its first 25 years,
the Society has published this Compendium, which
includes a short history of the ACHS by our Chairman,
Perry Butler.
It also includes an important essay
by our Chairman, Archbishop Rowan Williams, on Newman's
thought while an Anglican, and new contributions by
Robert Beaken, on Prayer for the Dead in the First World
War, Stephen Savage on Charles Page Eden, an associate
of the Tractarian leaders in Oxford who became a parish
priest in rural Yorkshire, Terry Tastard on St Philip's,
Plaistow, and Michael Yelton on the unsuccessful attempt
to set up an institution similar to Pusey House in
Cambridge, and on the unexpected secret of Papalist
priest E.S. Maltby.
All these authors are members of
the Society. In addition
there are republications of early lectures by Alan
Pigott
on Liberal Anglo-Catholicism in Cambridge, and by the
late Hugh Greenhalf on the Keble family, both of which
are of great interest but have been out of print for
many
years, and also an essay on the Library of
Anglo-Catholic
Theology by another member, George Woodman,
originally printed in the newsletter. The essays are
varied
and there is something for everyone. Our previous
compilations have sold very well and it is hoped this
will.
The cost is £17 inclusive of postage within the United
Kingdom, or £30 for two—an extra copy would make an
excellent present!
Overseas orders are £30 per copy
because of the postage costs.
Orders should be sent to Michael Yelton at 211 Hills
Road, Cambridge CB2 8RN and cheques made out to the
Anglo-Catholic History Society. Alternatively, and
preferably, you can pay by direct transfer to the
Society's
bank account (the name of the account is that of the
Society; the sort code is 09-01-55 and the account number is
06043088). If you pay that way, you can order by email to
michaelyelton@achs.org.uk

Anglo-Catholicism and the Church of Ireland by
Michael Yelton
This is a groundbreaking book which
covers a subject which most sources ignore. It deals
with the influence of the Oxford Movement on the Church
of Ireland, which had special provisions guarding itself
from Ritualist advances. It deals with a number of
churches where the mould was broken and also the history
of the two orders of Sisters in Ireland, which had
previously been scarcely chronicled. Extensively
researched and well-illustrated.
Copies available from the Secretary,
Michael Yelton
211 Hills Road, Cambridge, CB2 8RN
Price £17 inclusive of postage
