Description
The Glory of Christendom: A History of Christendom, volume 3
By Warren H. Carroll
The Glory of Christendom, from 1100-1517, is the third volume in “The History of Christendom” series. This series is the only in-print, comprehensive narration of Western history written from an orthodox Catholic perspective. How would a historical narrative read if the author began with the first principles that truth exists and the Incarnation happened?
This volume presents the glory of the High Middle Ages: the flowering of Christian civilization which produced saints and heroes, Popes, kings and queens, philosophers and architects whose achievements glow like beacons across the centuries. This was the age of a united and triumphant Christendom–the age of St. Bernard of Clairvaux, St. Francis of Assisi, St. Dominic, and St. Catherine of Siena; of St. Thomas Aquinas and the Gothic cathedrals; of the crusading kings Richard the Lion Hearted and St. Louis IX.
