Summary: The Best Single Volume Edition of Eusebius
Comment: This is by far the best single volume of Eusebius available in the English language. The valuable contents of the Church History, along with the Life of Constantine and the Oration in Praise of Constantine, make this one-volume compendium of Christian history indispensible. The worth of this volume cannot not be over-exagerated, when the scholarly and comprehensive introductions are considered, and when the vast and learned footnotes are rekoned as well. This is just the work for the engaged and concentrated reader of this period in history. The whole Church Fathers series by Phillip Schaff is highly recommended.

Rating: 5
Summary: A must-read volume for serious Christians.
Comment: This volume collects both Eusebius's history and his two speeches on the life of the Emperor St. Constantine. In order to understand the political views of the Orthodox and the foundation of divine right monarchy, the role of the Church in European and world history, and even God's plan for history, one must read this text. Truly a great work (despite the antiquated English of these translations; I might suggest reading the history in the Penguin edition and the two speeches on St. Constantine here).
