The Daily Telegraph has a reputation for outstanding obituaries. This book contains the best and most colourful obituaries of clergyment in recent years, selected and introduced by Trevor Beeson, former Dean of Winchester. Ranging from Monsignor Alfred Gilbey who weekly rode to hounds in frock coat and gaiters to Brian Brindley who died surrounded by his acolytes in the midst of a five course dinner at The Atheneum. This book is highly entertaining but Trevor Beeson's extended introduction also evaluates the clerical tradition and make some fairly piercing comments about the state of the Churches today.

The Catholic Church has always been a major player in European and world history. Whether it has enjoyed a religious dominance or existed as a minority religion, Catholicism has never been diverted from political life. "Priests, Prelates and People" records the Church struggling to adapt to the new political landscape ushered in by the French Revolution, and shows how the formation of nation states and identities was both helped and hindered by the Catholic establishment. It portrays the Vatican increasingly out of step in the wake of world war, Cold War and the massive expansion of the developing world, with its problems of population growth and under-development.

Excerpt from A Roll of Honour: Irish Prelates and Priests of the Last Century I think we may all congratulate the Catholic Truth Society of Ireland on the publication of this volume, which has very fitly been called the "Roll of Honour." It is, indeed, a Roll of Honour, for it comprises the most eminent Irish Churchmen of the nineteenth century, whose services to the Church and to their country have rendered their names immortal in the history of our native land. It would, I think, be difficult to find a trio of Churchmen in any country who hold a higher place in the estimation of their countrymen, both as ecclesiastics and patriots, than Murray, and Doyle and John MacHale. They disagreed in many points, but no one has ever yet questioned their honesty of purpose and nobility of character.
