The Hope In Hope Street: 200 Years in Hanley

This book tells the history of the 200 years of Christian witness in the chapel on the corner of Hope Street and Newhall Street in Hanley, Stoke On Trent. The first in-depth study of a Congregational Church in the Potteries, it tells the compelling story in context, from the beginnings of Staffordshire Congregationalism to the present day Bethel Evangelical Free Church, with all the twists and turns along the way. "Scholarly, yet accessible... this is an important, persuasive and compelling book, proving once again the powerful bond between Protestant Dissent and The Potteries." - from the foreword by Tristram Hunt, M.P., author of 'Building Jerusalem: The Rise and Fall of the Victorian City' and 'The English Civil War at First Hand'
