Parsons are more imaginative sinners than politicians, Times columnist Matthew Parris has discovered. Runaway bishops and naughty vicars are a staple of today's tabloid newspapers, but as he reveals in The Great Unfrocked, they're only part of the tradition of colourful clerics dating back centuries.
From Judas Iscariot to the Reverend Roger Holmes, the self-declared 'knicker vicar of North Yorkshire', disciples, bishops and parsons have been falling from grace. This entertaining and informative book, successor to the best-selling Great Parliamentary Scandals, brings to light some of the most unusual tales.
