Christianity: The First Three Thousand Years by Diarmaid MacCulloch

5.0

Comprehensive, charming and witty

Like Gibbon's decline and fall, .MacCulloch combines deep insight, a fascination with ideas and good humour to produce a profound exploration of his faith. The unravelling of doctrine and explanation of how religious belief has evolved gives Christianity a texture and richness often ignored by other commentators.
