In these pages Irene, Richard Prestwich's daughter, writes of their life at Tirley Garth and of the decision she took in the war years to make her home of forty years available for a much wider purpose. Clive Aslet's article in Country Life tells of the development of the house and grounds, the architect and architecture.
Others take up the story since then. Among them are young men and women from Britain and elsewhere, an Ethiopian statesman, a Runcom tanner, a Manchester buisman, an Indian author and journalist, an Australian cabinet minister, an English Archbishop. They tell of faith in action in their lives and in the situations in which they live and work. It is a tale as wide as the world and full of adventures as varied as the people who describe them.
