"The Trefoil" is an intimate and literary memoir by Arthur Christopher Benson that explores three pivotal chapters in the life and career of his father, Edward White Benson, who would eventually become the Archbishop of Canterbury. The work is structured around the symbol of the trefoil, representing three distinct stages of growth and service: the elder Benson's influential tenure as the first headmaster of Wellington College, his period as Chancellor of Lincoln, and his foundational work as the first Bishop of Truro.

Through the refined prose of A.C. Benson, this narrative offers more than just a familial biography; it provides a detailed look at the evolution of the 19th-century Church of England and the British educational system. The book captures the spirit of the Victorian era, blending personal anecdotes with reflections on institutional leadership and spiritual devotion. "The Trefoil" stands as a significant historical document for those interested in the social and religious landscape of late-Victorian Britain, as well as a poignant tribute to a man who left an indelible mark on the ecclesiastical and academic institutions of his time.
