Patchy faith in Number 10

GOD IN NUMBER 10:
The Personal Faith of the British Prime
Ministers, from Balfour to Blair
By Mark Vickers
SPCK. 489 pages. £25.00
ISBN 978 0 281 087 280

Mark Vickers has served up a treat in this magnum opus.

Countless biographies have taken us behind the famous black door. However, Vickers focuses on a significant aspect that most studies ignore – what personal faith (if any) the 19 Prime Ministers of the 20th century – 18 men and one woman – had, and how that faith impacted their personal and political lives.
