- Summary:
- Thomas Cranmer's Prayer Book of 1549 is a foundational document of the Anglican Church and has long been a deep source of inspiration for Christianity at large. Published on the occasion of the 450th anniversary of the Book of Common Prayer, The Collects of Thomas Cranmer presents again this rich devotional material in its original form and order. Compiled by C. Frederick Barbee and Paul E M. Zahl, Cranmer's Collects (prayers) are each followed by succinct commentary on their historical context and a meditation with contemporary Christians in mind. This beautifully produced volume opens afresh Cranmer's devotional treasure to modern believers from all communions.
