Signed by author (inscription). In his time, Danglow was one of Australia’s best known public figures, John Levi suggests that as Archbishop Daniel Mannix was for the Catholics, so Danglow was for the Jews. His handsome appearance and manner were part of the explanation. It helped that he married into the Michaelis Hallensteins, the patricians of Melbourne Jewry, and was friendly with some of the great of the land. In an age when a quarter of the world was British, he was the embodiment of Empire patriotism, was a renowned army chaplain and rose high in Freemasonry. Holding the one pulpit for over 50 years, he seemed invincible. Judaica pp. xii, 352 Illustrated #0416 First Edition. Prev ownership on front blank.
