Item description from seller

224 p.; 9 halftone pl.; 22 cm. After ten years as Bishop of Coventry, with the blitz and ruin of the cathedral at the close, `Few doubed that Mervyn was bound for promotion (if that is indeed the right word to use). He had been sounded in a roundabout way through a typically Garbettian letter about the Archbishopric of Capetown. But to have gone to South Africa at this juncture would have been far too much like running away. Later on he was felt to have established a certain claim to the Primacy itself, and indeed, after William Temple's death, his name was at least under consideration. There were some who hoped to see him at London one day; but he could never have stood the physical strain. Eventually, in the general post which followed Temple's translation from York to Canterbury and Garbett's from Winchester to York, Mervyn was offered the see of Winchester and had little hesitation about accepting. It meant that George Bell was again being passed over, which in itself was nothing short of scandalous, even though no advancement in the hierarchy could have added a cubit to Bell's moral stature. But that was not Mervyn's responsibility, and Winchester was indeed the right place for him, as was widely recognized when this was announced.'
