"Cannon Hepplewhite, Norwich, c.1902, an angler, customarily kept in the font minnows supplied for bait by choirboys"
Continuing the series of pocket lexicons, this is Elizabeth Welbourn's Dictionary of Prelates, Parsons, Vergers, Wardens, Sidesmen & Preachers, Sunday-School Teachers, Hermits, Ecclesiastical Flower-arrangers, Fifth Monarchy Men and False Prophets.
It is dedicated to "King John who interrupted matins in Lincoln Cathedral conducted by Bishop Hugh, remarking sardonically that sermons on bad kings bored him."

Publication Essentials
Pocket-sized at 15 x 10.5cm (6 x 4" in old money) and slightly larger than the rest of the series, comprising 16 pages with a firm card cover. This little volume is just one in the series of Carr's Pocket Books; they hover between a greeting and a present and make a lasting alternative to a birthday card. In cold bedrooms, only one hand need suffer exposure. A distinguished novelist recommends them for reading in the bath and an ambassador claims they can be palmed from the cuff during tedious speeches or profitless sermons.Delivery Information
