Description for A Nearly Infallible History of Christianity
Paperback. Everything you need to know about the history of the Christian church - and a fair few bits you didn't want to know thrown in for good measure. Num Pages: 464 pages, illustrations, maps. BIC Classification: HRAX; HRC. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 136 x 216 x 35. Weight in Grams: 490.
From Abelard to Zwingli, via a multitude of saints and sinners, Nick Page guides us through the creeds, the councils, the buildings and the background of the Christian church in an illuminating, and perhaps ever so slightly irreverent way.
Well-known as a writer, speaker, unlicensed historian and general information-monger, Nick Page combines in-depth research, historical analysis and cutting-edge guesswork to explore how on earth the Christian church has survived all that 2,000 years of heroes, villains and misfits could throw at it (mostly from the inside) to remain one of the most influential forces in the world today.

Rating: 4/5 StarsFor everyone who's ever tried to engage with church history and found it to be at best worthy but stupefyingly dull, Nick Page has played a blinder. His book is funny... warm, insightful and helpful... To have wit and style to turn the story of Athanasius, Bishop of Alexandria, and his chum Anthony the uber-hermit into a laugh-out-loud ...
