MacCulloch has a gift for explaining complicated things simply' Jack Scarisbrick, Catholic Herald

Recensioner i media

MacCulloch not only brings a lifetime's learning to bear on his subject, but writes with vigour, empathy and wit ... about identity and memory, about the importance of myths and why historians need to challenge them.
