Description

This book examines the old traditions of communal prayer and contrition in the 'new world' contexts of Britain's settler colonies in Canada, Australia and South Africa. In explaining why colonial governments summoned their peoples to worship in times of stress and celebration, this book provides a compelling look at the part played by traditional customs, practices and institutions in community formation.
