    About this ebook

    "The Soul of a Bishop" is the story of a spiritual crisis that leads Edward Scrope, Lord Bishop of Princhester, to give up his diocese in England and leave the Anglican Church. The protagonist is sunk in a spiritual crisis, troubled during World War I by doctrinal doubts and a sense of his Anglicism, nervousness, and insomnia. His inner stress leads him to find new ways of spiritual sensations, including drugs. It is an interesting psychologic story about a person that goes a long way to find peace of soul.
