Politics, poverty and belief : a political memoir

Field, Frank, 1942-2024
Books, Manuscripts
In this touching but also profound memoir, Field explains two key factors in his upbringing - the poverty of his own childhood and the deep and lasting effect of his Christian socialism, as exemplified in the writings of F.D. Maurice and William Temple. Field has spent his adult life fighting against poverty in Britain, through parliament and through his strong personal influence. Poverty for him has injustice at its root and as he explains in this book, he has found allies on all sides of the political spectrum.
