Wonderful that you are resurrecting these semi-forgotten authors and other obscure figures. I remember reading Wheat that Springeth Green many years ago when I first converted. Suburban priest… I also remember liking it, and it would be interesting to read it now, when my understanding of the faith has grown a bit.
That's how I feel about Morte D'Urban and why I'll read it again—but you've got me thinking: is it really reading it 'again'? The words have not changed but we have, so won't we be reading it 'anew'? Or am I overthinking this!?
As you keep unearthing these gems, I can only be grateful. Every gem adds to my list to complete before .... Thanks for another decade!

Ha oh I love an overthinker! Good point: I like reading it “anew”…
