Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Augustus Short, First Bishop of Adelaide: The Story of a Thirty-Four Years´ Episcopate The issue of this book marks the fulfilment of an often delayed purpose, and of a promise made long ago. When Bishop Short first announced his intention to resign the see of Adelaide, there appeared in the South Australian Advertiser some articles reviewing the bishop´s episcopate. Just before he finally left for England I saw him, confessed to the authorship of the articles, and suggested that they might be expanded into something more permanent if he would help me by supplying records and information in his possession. I shall always remember the blunt modesty of his reply - "Oh, but I´m not big enough a bishop for a biography!" So I ventured to put it that the history of how the various institutions of the Church in South Australia had been built up ought to be worthy of preservation in some connected form. "Oh," he answered with a merry twinkle, "if you want to be the historiographer of the diocese I´ll help you all I can."
