Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Christianity in History: A Study of Religious Development
Ours is in fact an attempt to set forth the genesis and growth of certain of the more typical forms and phases which Christianity - whether as conduct, piety, thought, or organised Church life - has assumed under the conditioning in?uences first of the Roman Empire and then of the Western civilisation that was its successor and heir. Thus, of books known to us, Professor Percy Gardner's Growth of Christianity is most akin to ours. Yet, apart from its larger scale, ours differs from his a good deal in scope and execution.
