The Catholic Church Through the Ages: A History

This one-volume survey of the history of the Catholic Church—from its beginning through the pontificate of John Paul II—explains the Church's progress by using Christopher Dawson's division of the Church's history into six distinct "ages," or 350-400 year periods of time.
