Summary: "History as St Peter Would Write it"
Comment: What will be found in Carroll's second volume of his "History of Christendom" is a brilliant and industrious work with Christ's Church as the center and the Popes as the cementing glue of a new era in civilization. The scope of this work contains an elaborate sketch of ecclesiastical and political history from Constantine the Great to the end of the First Crusade. The battles against heresy, the Muslims, and other barbarians are tinged with stories of the great saints, monks, and war heroes who fought for the good of Christian Europe. This series is one of the most reputable in its field, and is certainly one of the most unique and valuable for its Christ-centered perspective.

Rating: 5
Summary: Excellent introduction to this period of history
Comment: Warren H. Carroll's second volume of his "History of Christendom" is an excellent general treatment of the period from Constantine to the crusades. Although it based on secondary sources, it is very accurate and detailed for an introductory work. It is nice to see a historian defend Christ's Church and the infallibility of the Roman Pontiffs. Although in one or two places the author makes some theological misstatements, the average lay Catholic will be pleased to find a history of this period that does not repeat the old canards against the Church. I also highly recommend it to non-Catholics who wish to hear the "other side" of the story.

Rating: 5
Summary: Must read for those interested in History of Christianity
Comment: Honest and forthright this second in a series of 6 presents clearly and accurately the history of the Christian Church post Constantine to approximately 1000ad. The weaving of secular and Christian history presents a rich tapestry to often ignored by those that focus on one side or another. Blanced, fair and honest look at the Church warts and all.
