About the book
"In the early 1950s and 1960s, a handful of British Anglican priests, their wives and one or two laity, went out to work in factory and mine in the context of post-war austerity and would remain there up to and beyond the technological revolution of the 1960s. A few survived the 1980s and 1990s, retiring in the working-class districts where they had begun." "These 'worker-priests' have sometimes been thought of as the precursors of non-stipendiary ministers, but there is some doubt about that. In practice the first worker-priests had more in common with their famous Catholic counterparts in France." "This book tells their story."--BOOK JACKET.
