It examines their roles in establishing the Christian faith in Wessex, their relationships with royalty, and their efforts to maintain unity within the English Church. The book also discusses the division of the West Saxon diocese, the contributions of notable Bishops such as Daniel and Ealdhelm, and the challenges faced by the Church during a period of political instability and Viking invasions.
