Creating a New Zealand prayer book

This book is the first substantial memoir covering the whole 25 year period of the Prayer Book Commission and its work. It is a fascinating, personal account that will explain much about that watershed event in the church's history. Brian Carrell was a member of the Prayer Book Commission from its second year (it started in 1964, he joined in 1965) and he saw it through to its publication in 1989. Not only was Brian present and part of it throughout this history, but he kept very full personal records. The book is written in a very readable manner; it would be just as easy to follow for the non-specialist or someone with just general interest.
