Early Christianity in Britain

When I was in Aber last my prospective sympathetic Mike Iliff (our kids get married in June) recommended a book to me - Early Christianity. The backbone of this work which takes you from the first century to Wycliffe and Tyndale grwos out of PhD work by Peter Green. Some published PhD theses are hard to read but in this case Brian Edwards has edited the manuscipt and that has made for an easy read of 17 chapters. Much of the material was familiar to me (Patrick, Aidan, David, etc) but mush was not. Some of it isvery interesting indeed. It refutes the Augustine of Canterbury thesis that was promoted in school and argues for a church that last for 500 years before then and also denies that England ever had much to do with Rome, much less the other home nations. This is wll worth getting hold of. SOme of it will surprise you,
