Synopsis
This book depicts the life of George Rundle Prynne, a priest from the 19th century whose mission was a revival of the Catholic devotion in the Church of England. Born into a family with a rich history and tradition, Prynne's path into the clergy was influenced by his pious mother. His early experiences in traditionalist parishes molded his beliefs. He became a leading figure in the Oxford Movement, striving to bring back Catholic practices. Prynne was appointed the vicar of St. Peter's in Plymouth in 1848, and his efforts there form the core of this biography. Amidst opposition from Protestants, he introduced Catholic practices such as daily Eucharist and confession, establishing a community of Anglican nuns, and building a new church. Prynne's life sheds light on the history of the Catholic Revival, the struggles it faced, and the impact it had on the Church of England, making this book a valuable resource for those interested in religious history and the development of Anglo-Catholicism.
