This is the title of a collection of fourteen essays that has been commissioned and published by the Prayer Book Society in England on the occasion of the 350th anniversary of the 1662 Book of Common Prayer. The foreword is by the Prince of Wales, and the authors include such luminaries as P.D. James and Terry Waite. Five of the fourteen essays are by Canadian authors, reflecting the warm ties between the English and Canadian Societies. The book can be ordered from on-line sources such as Amazon.
