Softcover. 64 p.; 18.5 cm. (Living church books) `On All Saints' Day, 1961, an Open Letter addressed to the Archbishops of Centerbury and York by 32 members of the Church of England appeared in the Press.

There was a tacit assumption that there really was little or nothing in common. We are, indeed, paying a dreadful price for the age long mispractice of ex-communication. This book is the record of an experiment in mutual discovery. The typescript of the recording was therefore subsequently sent to each of the group, so that they could deal with their more flagrant grammatical lapses and possible incoherencies. In all essentials, however, what is printed here is what was recorded as we sat round the table. We met in order to learn from each other in the process.
