The history of 19th-century England abounds with great religious figures--Henry Manning, Samuel, Robert, and Henry Wilberforce, and John Henry Newman--and great religious turmoil. Here Newsome recounts the story of the Wilberforces and Manning, from its early hopes to its tragic, interpersonal dissolution.
 
Foreword by Robert Runcie, former Archbishop of Canterbury.

"We see the band of friends, cheerful, united, sanguine, starting together on life's path. Pass sixty years, we check the list, to find a scattered remant of survivors, telling sadly of havoc wrought in their train by the storms of life, themselves too often alienated at its close. But the record of their deeds survives". William Tuckwell, Reminiscences of Oxford, 1900
