Unabashedly proud of our brilliant Catholic heritage, Christ the King-Lord of History examines all historical developments from the point of view of the Church and the enhancement or decline of the influence of the Recounted are the stories of scores of great heroes and heroines throughout history, along with historic Saints of the Church, famous villains and characters of every stripe. Here is a book a person just cannot stop reading!
Whereas most secular histories written today give but grudging acknowledgment to the role of the Catholic Church in forming Western (and therefore much of modern) civilization, this book makes the contribution of Christ and His Church the central aspect of ALL history-which indeed it is!
