Bishop of magnetic power : James Moorhouse in Melbourne, 1876-1886
Sturrock, Morna2005
Book
James Moorhouse, the second Anglican Bishop of Melbourne, was one of the great public figures in the city during the 1870 and 80s.. His oratorical skills were unsurpassed, and he provided an authoritative and stabilising voice, week in, week out, before thousands of citizens whether gathered in city or country. Drawing heavily on the ample reportage that Moorhouse received in the contemporary press, this book acknowledges the central role he played in the public life of Marvellous Melbourne, while showing how he earned the title of Bishop of Magnetic Power.
