Richard J. Mammana, is the archivist of the Living Church Foundation, The Living Church This book is essential reading for anyone interested in modern Anglican church life or what may be its future.
Jonathan Benthall, Times Literary Supplement [Abby Day] presents an outstanding ethnography of the dwindling generation of laywomen, now mostly in their eighties or nineties, whose unobtrusive devotion to the Anglican/Episcopal tradition has kept parish churches serviced and surviving ... Day avoids sentimentality, but conveys a sense of loss. Her findings add to the headaches that trouble the Church of England's current leaders.
Michele Dillon, University of New Hampshire, Author (with Paul Wink) of In the Course of a Lifetime: Tracing Religious Belief, Practice, and Change Abby Day gives empathic visibility to the under-appreciated generation of older lay women whose heart and spirit have sustained Anglicanism amid the sweep of institutional and societal change.
