Fathers of the Church

by Roy J. Deferrari

This book is derived from a series of lectures on the Fathers of the Church that were presented in the School of Theology for Laity of the Diocese of Padua. The book covers the illustration of Christian literature in the first three centuries and the great Fathers who illuminated the Christian community. Originally published in Italian, the English version was printed in 1987 and has many illustrations of religious art and the early leaders.
