Geoffrey Studdert Kennedy (Woodbine Willie) was unique: a conservative churchman keen on the holy sacraments; a non-combattant who won a gallantry medal in the WW1 trenches; a man of the people, who cared deeply for social justice; an inspired orator who could hold an audience of thousands spellbound. The Bible teaches that "a man's gifts make room for him", and this was certainly the case with Kennedy, who became a household name at home and in the Commonwealth through the compassion and sheer passion of his soul. Bob Holman, recently deceased, also a compassionate activist and a man of the poor, writes readably and engagingly for a wide audience. I commend this book highly.

Woodbine Willie preached at my local Church - St. Michael's Breaston. Derbyshire Armistice day Service in 1921. I have recently received a complete copy of his Sermon on that occassion.
