- The author wrote this book to keep "alive in the Church of England of today the spirit of George Kennedy Allen Bell. archbishop's chaplain at Lambeth 1914-24, Dean of Canterbury 1924-29, episcopal secretary of the Lambeth Conference of 1930, for twenty-nine years Bishop of Chichester, life president of the World Council of Churches, the thirtieth anniversary of whose death falls just after the Lambeth Conference 1988. Bell's life expresses for me pre-eminently an Anglican vocation; one man's pilgrimage, often lonely, on the distinctively anglican 'middle way'." -- p. 3.

- "[By] Trevor Beeson".
- "First published in 2002 by SCM Press. This paperback edition published in 2003". -- verso of t.-p.
- Includes bibliographical references and index.
- "The purpose of this book is twofold. It provides brief portraits of forty-eight bishops who were in office from about the time of the 1832 Reform Bill, when the Church of England as well as the nation as a whole entered a period of continuous change, until the final years of the twentieth century." -- Intro., p. [1].
- Beeson "ends by asking why such able and interesting bishops are now in short supply and wonders whether the hectically busy managerial role assumed by the bishops of the new millennium represents a betrayal of the Episcopal office and a consequent weakening of the Church's witness in an incredibly secularized society. Looking not far ahead, the likely impact of women bishops is also discussed". -- back cover.
