Sinossi
An Alliance across the Alps explains who the Waldensians are, how they formed a Protestant 'Israel of the Alps' in a tiny enclave and, with British help, how they sought to become an evangelical church for Italy. This study concentrates on the special relationship between the Waldensians and British evangelicals in Victorian times, the British cultural love affair with Italy and the contemporary witness and service in a dramatically changing Italy. R. D. Kernohan looks at the Waldensians in the wide context of Italian life and religion, including the progress of Pentecostalism. An Alliance across the Alps offers new insight into a neglected but significant area of Church history. The story of this troubled but tenacious Christian minority-a minority even amongst the increasing number of Italian Protestants-is also relevant to a situation where we are all minorities in a world of many faiths and much unbelief.
