London: A Spiritual History
Edoardo Albert
One man's search for truth is interlaced with the spiritual history of one of the world's greatest cities
From its earliest days when Londoners would have worshipped pagan gods, through Roman occupation, the coming of Christianity, and the later waves of other faiths—Jews, Muslims, Hari Krishnas—this book takes the reader on a fascinating journey through London and its spiritual history. It discusses what its inhabitants believed and what they worshipped, delving into where, when, and how, and covering the landmarks, the names, the issues, and the arguments. It is written chronologically and interwoven with Albert’s own spiritual journey, as from a Catholic background, he became an atheist at the age of 6, and then gradually, through much spiritual searching, returned to the Christian faith.
