The Reader
«'. . . will appeal to those who want a manual for their own devotions, and who recognise this as an anthology crafted by a spiritual master . . . I found here prayers that I had not seen before, and that I will be glad to use.»
Cally Hammond, Church Times
«In the diocese of Chelmsford we have always treasured our association with Evelyn Underhill and her love for what is now our Retreat House at Pleshey. It was therefore tremendously exciting to discover her handwritten collection of prayers. This book now makes those prayers available to everyone. To read them and to pray them though is to enter into the heart and experience the spirituality of one of the most significant Christian writers of the 20th century.»
Stephen Cottrell, Bishop of Chelmsford
«For those who love Evelyn Underhill and her many writings this Prayer Book is a real find! Here in this handsomely produced book is her compilation of prayers from the saints, theologians, liturgical texts, and her own prayers. These served as a resource in her work as a pioneering retreat leader and spiritual director. Reading these prayers puts the reader in the company of a woman of profound wisdom and deep prayerfulness. Her love of God and care for others is palpable.»
Dana Greene, President, The Evelyn Underhill Association
