The Life and Work of John Medley is a biographical book written by William Quintard Ketchum and first published in 1893. The book tells the story of John Medley, who was a prominent bishop in the Anglican Church in Canada during the 19th century. Medley was born in England in 1804 and immigrated to Canada in 1845, where he became the first bishop of the newly formed Diocese of Fredericton.The book covers Medley’s early life in England, his education at Oxford University, and his early career as a priest in England before his move to Canada. It also explores his work in the Diocese of Fredericton, where he established numerous churches, schools, and charitable organizations. The book describes Medley’s efforts to promote education and literacy in the region, as well as his work to improve the lives of Indigenous peoples in the area.In addition to his work in Canada, the book also covers Medley’s involvement in the wider Anglican Church, including his participation in the Lambeth Conference of 1867 and his efforts to promote unity and cooperation among Anglican churches around the world.Overall, The Life and Work of John Medley provides a comprehensive look at the life and legacy of one of Canada’s most influential religious figures. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of the Anglican Church in Canada, as well as for those interested in the history of Canada more broadly.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
