HART, A. TINDAL

The Curate's Lot - the Story of the Unbeneficed English Clergy

London, John Baker. 1970, First. (ISBN: 0212983806). Hard Cover, 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. A Fine unmarked copy with VG+ dustjacket. 224 pages. 36 plates and 3 figures in the text. Dr. Tindal Hart traces the fascinating history of the curate's lot from medieval times to the present day. On the whole it is a record of dedicated devotion to duty when, in the face of considerable hardship, often underpaid, half-starved and grossly humiliated, he struggled to keep his head above water and provide for what was often a large family. When young he was expected to play his part in local society without the means to do so, and when old and possibly disappointed was expected to hold his head highas a senior member of the community still performing the functions of his office. A reliable historical guide for church and social historian. R2. Fine/Very Good.
