About the author
Born in 1797 at Leytonstone, Essex, Charles Benjamin Tayler became an English clergyman and a prolific writer, especially known for books and tracts aimed at younger readers. He studied at Trinity College, Cambridge, graduating with a B.A. in 1819 and later taking his M.A. in 1822.
Alongside his church work, he wrote extensively on Christian teaching and everyday religious life. Reference works describe him as a "writer for the young," and his better-known titles include The Child of the Church of England, Facts in a Clergyman's Life, and Sermons for all Seasons.
He served in several parishes during his career, including St Peter's, Chester, and later Otley in Suffolk. Tayler died in 1875, leaving behind a large body of devotional and instructional writing that gives a clear window into Victorian Anglican life and values.
