About This Item
London, U.K. : Thames and Hudson, 1981 328 pages with 353 illustrations: 85 in colour, 268 photographs, drawings and maps in b/w; with index, sources of illustrations and select bibliography. Some age and shelf wear. Original dustjacket not price clipped - dj edges and corners worn - slight tanning to the dj's front and back flaps. Slight water damage to the lower edges of the back board of the book. Otherwise tight copy - no internal markings, clean text pages. " Professor Barraclough's book is not written specifically for Christians or for non-Christians; it takes Christianity as a historical fact and uses the resources of modern research to trace the way in which it has moulded men and events. The thirteen authors, all leading historians in their fields, have interpreted Christianity in its widest sense, exploring the religious life of ordinary people as well as the rituals of cardinals and kings."
