520 _aIn 'Favourite Prayers' Lady Cassidi assembled an astonishing collection of prayers, which have inspired thousands and thousands of people. Now Lady Cassidi has contacted a huge number of people to ask them to supply the text or texts which have most encouraged and inspired them in times of difficulty or when facing life's challenges. The people who have contributed to the book range from Richard 'Watership Down' Adams and Maeve Binchy to Mike Briearley and Jilly Cooper. People are drawn from every walk of life. The Duke of Edinburgh, Lesley Garrett, Derek Jacobi, Robin Knox-Johnson, Archbishop Rowan Williams, Mark Tully and Fay Weldon are all included. The texts printed are by authors as wide ranging as John Wesley, Winston Churchill, Marcel Proust, WBYeats, Leonard Cheshire, Ted Hughes and St Benedict. There is inspiration and wisdom for people in numerous situations - those in danger, preparing for marriage, those who feel marginalised, and those who have to make decisions which may affect the lives of countless other people. It will be a great gift for anyone in these troubled times.
