| I am compiling a list of "One Hundred Great Anglican
Books." This is entirely for my own edification and amusement, although
I hope it will provoke thoughtful discussion. Currently, the list skews
heavily toward white, British, male 19th and 20th century writers, so I am
seeking additional authors who are (1) women; (2) evangelicals; (3) from
Australia, New Zealand, and the farther reaches of the Anglican Communion;
(4) from the 16th, 17th, and 18th centures; (5) from the developing world. I
welcome suggestions, however keep in mind that (1) this is completely
subjective; and (2) I am the benevolent overlord and my decisions are
absolute and final. That said, please send your suggestions to
anglcan@aol.com. Thanks.
