The Old-Time Parson is a book written by Peter Hampson Ditchfield and first published in 1908. The book provides a detailed account of the life and work of a traditional English parson during the 18th and 19th centuries. The author draws upon his extensive research and personal experience to offer a vivid portrayal of the parson's daily routine, his relationship with his parishioners, and his role in the community.The book is divided into several chapters, each focusing on a different aspect of the parson's life. The first chapter provides an overview of the parson's duties, including preaching, administering the sacraments, and providing pastoral care to his flock. Subsequent chapters explore the parson's relationship with his parishioners, his involvement in local politics and social issues, and his role as a teacher and scholar.Throughout the book, Ditchfield emphasizes the importance of the parson's role in the community, both as a religious leader and as a moral authority. He also highlights the challenges and difficulties faced by many parsons, including poverty, isolation, and the demands of their work.Overall, The Old-Time Parson provides a fascinating glimpse into the world of traditional English parsons, and will appeal to anyone interested in the history of religion and society in Britain.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
