At the time he authored The Church on the Prairie, he was serving as Secretary of the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel in Foreign Lands. This title offers a unique perspective on the settlement of the Canadian prairies, highlighting how the Anglican Church established, staffed, and ministered to congregations of agricultural settlers during a pivotal era in Canadian history.
