Description

The former Archbishop of Canterbury recalls his life and his spiritual quest. This remarkable and candid memoir marks the first time in history that an Archbishop of Canterbury has written his autobiography. Know the Truth tells George Carey's story from growing up in Dagenham to his experiences in the RAF in the early fifties, of how he was to become Bishop of Bath and Wells and thereafter attained the position of Archbishop of Canterbury. Utterly sincere and told with warmth and compassion, Know the Truth shares George Carey's story of marriage, family and friendship as well as adressing the wider political aspects of his time at Lambeth.

Author Biography:

George Carey was born in 1935 in the East End of London, the son of a porter. After failing his 11-plus he left school at fifteen, began working at the London Electricity Board as an office boy and served with the British armed forces in Iraq in the 1950s. By the time he was twenty, he had decided he wanted to be ordained. After positions as parish priest and Bishop of Bath and Wells, he became the 103rd Archbishop of Canterbury and served seventy million Anglicans around the world from 1991 to 2003.
