The Untold Story of Christian Britain

Description

This book tells how the Christian faith has been foundational to the building of Britain. In a rare approach, John Bradley takes the reader from Roman times to the present day, before taking a look into the future. Starting with the arrival of Christianity in Britain, he relates the way in which it formed the nation’s values and characteristics.

John describes all the important constitutional structures, including Parliament and the political parties, the law and freedom of speech. The development of the economy and trade, care of the poor and health, the status of women, and education are all discussed as the author shows how Christians, known and less known, played their part in all of these features.
