“It will be difficult for the hardiest episcopater to make anything good out of this book. It is a bad record, whether we regard it as citizens or as churchmen.”—Pall Mall Gazette.
“This is a tremendous and terrible indictment, which can only be supported by an appeal to facts. Unfortunately for the bishops, the record is black. It could not be much worse.”—Daily News.
“The importance of Mr. Clayton’s investigations lies in their cumulative effect. In view of their calling, nearly every intervention and every abstention of the bishops in political affairs has been melancholy. Taken together, the record is overwhelming. What we have here is a history of the absolute uniformity with which popular causes, involving no menace to the church, have found the bishops against them.... It is a record of hopeless, unredeemed failure. It has been sectarian. It has been selfish. It has never once been national. It has never once been right, never even magnificently wrong. Its mistakes have all been mean.”—Morning Leader.
