This book chronicles the revision of the Irish Book of Common Prayer, a pivotal moment in the history of the Irish Church. Written by a participant in the revision process, the book offers a firsthand account of the debates and controversies that shaped the new prayer book. As a response to societal anxieties and the perceived drift of the Church of Ireland toward 'Romanism,' this book explores the events that led to a revision of the Book of Common Prayer in the newly disestablished Irish Church. The author examines the arguments for and against changes to the liturgy, highlighting the clash between conservative and revisionist factions. The ideological rifts within the Church of Ireland are laid bare as the author delves into the theological disputes over baptismal regeneration, priestly absolution, and the real presence of Christ in the Eucharist. The book provides valuable insights into the nature of religious belief and practice in Ireland during a period of great social and political change. Ultimately, this book offers a nuanced understanding of the complex forces that shaped the revision of the Irish Book of Common Prayer, shedding light on the ongoing debates over the role of liturgy in the life of the Church.

Excerpt from The Story of the Revision of the Irish Prayer Book
The publication of these recollections of the Revision of the Irish Book of Common Prayer originated in a wish expressed by Dr. Dowden, the late Bishop of Edinburgh, that something of the kind should be attempted. They appeared, by desire, in The Irish Church Quarterly, which could grant but a limited space, and this must be the excuse for the omission of much that I would gladly have included. To repair these omissions would entail rearranging, and to a considerable extent re-writing, a task which I do not now feel inclined to undertake. There are few living who passed through those troublesome times, but there may be others to whom the story of a very momentous period in the history of their Church will have an interest, particularly in view of the attempt which is now being made to complete the work of revision on non-controversial lines.
