Church History succinctly but thoroughly covers 2,000-plus years of balanced and relevant history including our Lord's life and ministry, the birth of the Catholic Church, Roman persecutions, martyrs, saints, Church councils, heresies, schisms, Crusades, the Hundred Years War, Protestantism, the Reformation, the Enlightenment, the French Revolution, the Oxford Movement, Vatican I, and more. Students will gain insight into the Church's quest to spread the Gospel message of Jesus Christ throughout the ages. Recommended for 12th-grade students enrolled in TAN Academy.

A brief summary of The Church's history written by an American Newmanite. Fine for untangling the various periods of church history and getting a sense of each era. Fr. Laux has a great talent for narrative and portraying the complexity of the old world with brevity.
