The Oxford History of Christianity by Mcmanners
Written by a team of expert scholars, this acclaimed book traces the history of Christianity from the Early Church to the present day. The opening section takes events to 1800; the second, examining the impact of Christianity around the world, brings the story up to date; while the final part, considering questions of theology, conscience, and belief, provides a glimpse of the future of the faith.
Review from previous edition full of wise insights, balance of information, reliable scholarship and precision of writing * Times Literary Supplement *
I know of no other book on this subject which is so wide Nn coverage and penetration' * Financial Times *
An extensive and partly annotated list of further reading will be very helpful to the reader who wants to go beyond a one chapter account of two or three medieval centuries, or of a whole continent in later times. * David J. Hall, The Friend *
