Sobre este artículo
Harper & Brothers, 1906 Bound in bright green ribbed cloth with equally bright gilt titles, 265 pp. This is the memoir of the author's years in Idaho and Wyoming starting in 1887. He was ordained the first Episcopal missionary bishop for this territory when it was still the wild west.In his ten years in the west he established 38 churches and built St. Matthew's Cathedral in Laramie, Wyoming. An interesting story of his time there appears in Wiki:
Surely you wouldn’t rob a poor bishop?” said Talbot.
“Did you say you were a bishop?” asked the bandit.
“Yes, just a poor bishop.”
“What church?”
“The Episcopal.”
“The hell you are! Why that’s the church I belong to! Go along, driver.”[1]
Book with a neat early inscription on front end paper, largely unread.
