ABSTRACT

Of the four Anglicans considered in this book, Walter Robert Matthews, who became Dean of St Paul’s, unquestionably had the highest profile nationally. The only one of the four not to have been educated at Oxford or Cambridge, he was lauded as ‘[T]he most distinguished graduate from the Faculty of Theology’ of King’s College, London;1 and he is the only one of the four to have left a full-scale autobiography.2
