A History of Christianity by Johnson, Paul - 1976

A Touchstone Book, 1976. Soft cover. Good. From the book, ""Paul Johnson's study of Christianity, from his namesake Apostle to Pope John XXIII, more particularly in relation to the role in world history of the Roman Catholic Church and other institutional manifestations, can only be described as masterly. It combines a great wealth of scholarship, including many fascinating byways as well as the main highways, with a vigorous, confident style, a kind of innate intensity which carries the narrative along so that it rarely falters and is never dull."" Soft cover in good condition. Text block clean and tight. No markings noted. Book shows light age toning at edges and has a crease along front cover.
