Publisher's Synopsis
The Church In The Furnace is a collection of essays written by seventeen temporary Church of England chaplains who served in France and Flanders during World War I. The book was first published in 1919 and was edited by Frederick Brodie Macnutt. The essays provide a unique perspective on the experiences of the chaplains during the war, including their interactions with soldiers, their efforts to provide spiritual guidance and comfort, and their own struggles and challenges. The book also includes a preface by the Archbishop of Canterbury, which highlights the importance of the chaplains' work and the role of the Church in times of war. Overall, The Church In The Furnace offers a valuable insight into the role of religion and spirituality in the midst of one of the most devastating conflicts in human history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
