Torchbearers of Christendom: The Light They Shed and the Shadows They Cast

1ST EDITION. From the Preface of the author: "This book has been written for young people, and for older folks who love the Church but do not know much about it. It is an attempt to construct an historic framework which shall be at once simple and attractive. The scholarly reader will, I trust, see signs of painstaking effort for accuracy. But my prime endeavor has been to make the course of events in Christendom easily understandable, and so entertaining that an abiding taste for Church history may begotten in many".
