Overview

The importance of Greek history when it comes to understanding the history of Christianity itself can’t be underestimated. Being home to several of the churches to whom the apostle Paul wrote occasional epistles, as well as a place of central importance in the interaction between East and West, the story of Greece is often times synonymous with the story of the church. In this masterful seven volume series, George Finlay covers the entire history of Greece, from its days as part of the pagan Roman Empire to its revolution against the Ottomans in the nineteenth century. Throughout these works, the importance and place of the Christian faith in the unfolding history of the Greek people is kept in full view. This set is a must-have for any student of either church history or the history of Christianity in the Greek-speaking world of the East.
