Description

A magnificent history presents six centuries of the Catholic Church in its entirety, embracing not merely the development of the ecclesiastical administration but also the rise and fall of churches, empires, and dynasties. Warm, sympathetic, and insightful, it reveals the impact of faith upon the humble mass of its adherents, and its influence on learning, the arts, and even on its enemies. The author is a member of the Academie Francaise who wrote more than 70 books.
