I took this as part of a course, and I loved every minute of reading the excerpts, and want to read it again on my own! Reading it made me even more passionate about my Catholic Faith than ever and ready to defend it, especially in regards to Scripture and Tradition.

Just mentions of things tagged above for historical reasons, either that happened or that people were accused of. Nothing triggering at all, really.lectorliber04's review against another edition

What better way to learn about my faith that to learn it from the early Church Fathers? This book is a very good start. Brief biographies, two or three examples of their writings and plenty of resources cited at the end of the book.

Okay, the only reason that I technically "didn't finish" this is because my class skipped around to different parts. But this was an interesting collection of primary sources from antiquity.
