Geoffrey Blainey, one of Australia's most accomplished and popular historians, takes us on a journey from the very beginnings of Christianity through to the current day. Looking at the development of the religion itself, as well the social and economic forces that have influenced it, this book will include biographical detail of many of the significant players in Christianity's rise and fall through the ages, including Francis of Assisi, Wesley, Whitefield and Bunyan.
Written with Blainey's characteristic curiosity and story-telling skill, The History of Christianity reveals the impact Christianity has had on our spiritual beliefs and on the most significant events in our social and political history, and shows us how it grew to become a faith adopted in so many corners of the world.
