Colin Stephenson, who succeeded Alfred Hope Patten as Master of the
Guardians and Priest Administrator of the Shrine of Our Lady of
Walsingham, was one of the most amusing and entertaining observers
of the high Anglicanism to which he was devoted. In Walsingham Way,
he gives full flight to his renowned wit and self-deprecating
humour. He tells the remarkable story of the restoration of the
mediaeval Shrine by his famous predecessor and paints a vivid
portrait of this larger than life character whose determined vision
recreated England's premier place of pilgrimage and renewal in the
quiet Norfolk countryside. We meet in these pages an endless
succession of fascinating characters who flocked to Walsingham in
those heady years of the first half of the twentieth century. Colin
Stephenson never set out to write an authoritative historical
record and his perspective is at times distinctively personal, yet
Watchigham Way remains one of the most warm, engaging and sought
after accounts of one of Anglo-Catholicism's greatest triumphs and
one of its most memorable characters.
