Description

David Scott introduces a personal selection from Lancelot Andrewes' Private Prayers in this, the first volume in this series on seventeenth century spiritual writers. These prayers are very powerfully written and are of interest as texts and as devotional reading. This volume will contain some biographical detail and historical context, and the influence they have had. Lancelot Andrewes (1555-1626) was chaplain to Queen Elizabeth, Bishop of Chichester, Ely and then Winchester.
