Originally published in 1914, this book contains a discussion of
the position of episcopacy within the Anglican tradition. It was
created in response to the controversy surrounding the 1913 Kikuyu
conference, which proposed a federation of the various missionary
bodies working in East Africa. At the close of the conference the
majority of the delegates, who came from a range of different
denominations, participated in a united communion service presided
over by Bishop Peel of Mombasa and the Rev. J. E. Hamshere, of the
Church of Scotland Mission. This was seen by many, notably Bishop
Weston of Zanzibar, as unacceptable breach of Anglican practice.
The book provides a comprehensive analysis of episcopacy, revealing
its importance within the Church of England as well as the
historical tradition of interaction with other forms of
Christianity.
