Product Description

Product Description
The Papacy is one of the oldest continuing institutions in the Western World, and it is still, as we enter the third millennium, of great significance today. How did this monarchy' arise, and who were the men who made it central to western life? With contributions from eight eminent historians, an overview by the renowned historian and journalist Paul Johnson, and over 200 sumptuous illustrations, The Papacy explores the closed world of the ropes in all its intrigue and splendour.

About the Author
Paul Johnson was born in 1928. He edited the New Statesman in the 1960s and has written over forty books. His Modern Times, a history of the world from the 1920s to the 1990s, has been translated into more than fifteen languages. As well as a weekly column in the Spectator, he contributes to newspapers all over the world.
