A short one this time!

One of the ideas alluded to in the paper from Sweden is the significnace - or power perhaps - of book titles and cover designs.  She spoke of one book cover that had attracted her whilst the content she felt did not match up.

So, could we lure people into read our (dull) church history by putting lovely pastoral scenes on the cover and coming up with titles a little less mundane than 'English Baptists a Boring History Book' by Revd Dr Ancient Scholar?

How about 'All You Ever Wanted to Know About the New Connexion but were Afraid to Ask' with a picture of rural Leicetsershire emblazoned on the cover? (Hint to Graham - check out how dull those Paternoster covers are when you finish editting Frank Rinaldi's work!  At least 'The Tribe of Dan' as a title is mildly amusing and intriguing)
