Henry Cassell Ruschmeyer's newly released "The English Way of Life: A Critique" is an engaging sociohistorical exploration of English culture

MEADVILLE, Pa., June 30, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- "The English Way of Life: A Critique": an intriguing discussion of English culture. "The English Way of Life: A Critique" is the creation of published author Henry Cassell Ruschmeyer, who was born in New York City in 1944 and went on to earn degrees from Union College, Bank Street of Education, General Theological Seminary, and New York University. He is an ordained Episcopal priest and has served in several parishes in New York state and St. Paul's Church, Knightsbridge, London.

Ruschmeyer shares, "The ethic of a people determines how they act in life situations, requiring right and wrong behavior. It can be seen in their daily activities, by the words they say—whether spoken or written—and by the things they do, both publicly and privately. The English are no exception to this means of understanding why a people act the way they do, whether at home or abroad, in their own company or in the company of strangers.

"A now-retired Bishop of London was heard to say, rather ironically and exasperatingly, during a meeting of area clergy of the Westminster (St. Margaret) Deanery, and in response to a query by a young priest from a British Commonwealth country living in England for the past several years, 'Haven't you realized by now that this is England where nothing is clear.' This response speaks to the many uncomfortable situations in which Englishmen find themselves to which there are no apparent answers. Mercifully, the English fog can descend upon these awkward moments, providing a temporary way out from the nagging truth.

"Herein an attempt is made to penetrate fog and all, trying to lay bare the mysteries of the English way of life by an American outsider who once lived and worked amongst the English people for seven years. An inside look into the English legal, political, social, educational, commercial, athletic, international, and religious institutions is explored by one who served as a clergyman in a central London parish and, simultaneously, as a teacher of religious studies at a private, Church of England - affiliated, secondary school in south London."

Published by Christian Faith Publishing, Henry Cassell Ruschmeyer's new book is a modern anthropological observation of life in English society.

The author writes from first-hand experience from the seven years spent living, working, and preaching in London.
