From London to Lincoln via Baghdad: The Life of Bishop Colin Dunlop, 1897-1968

By Francis Dunlop

Book Overview

This extensively researched biography of Colin Dunlop, Bishop of Jarrow, Dean of Lincoln, and, in the 1930s, Chaplain in Baghdad, was written by Colin's late son, Francis Dunlop. The main source for the memoir was the collection of highly interesting personal journals Colin kept at various points in his life, a good many family letters to his wife and her guardian, and later to Francis, official correspondence in the Lambeth Palace Library, and articles he published in various church papers, parish and diocesan magazines. Francis's chief aim has been to try to give a rounded portrait of Colin as a man, but also to show what the life and work of a clergyman and dignitary involved, against the background of the early to mid twentieth century. The book is illustrated with over thirty photographs.
