Summary: Beware
Comment: The "current" in the title is 1944. This is a re-issue of a book first published in 1930.
There are interesting stories - but this is not a history that takes into account the second half of the 20th cnetury.
Rating: 5
Summary: Excellent for both Catholic and non-Catholic
Comment: This book explains all of the questions that I, as a public-school-educated cradle (i.e., ignorant) Catholic, had about my religion.
After re-discovering my Catholic faith, I have been trying to explore the depths of my Church and its teachings. This book has helped me to put people, places, and events in their proper perspective.
I recommend this book to anyone interested in finding the roots of their Catholic faith.

Summary: Review from the Publisher
Comment: Every Catholic at some time in his life has undoubtedly felt a desire to know the history of the Catholic Church. But where to begin the study of nearly 2,000 years? Probably no book was better concieved or better executed to fulfill this need than Church History by Fr.John Laux. Written expressly both for students and adults; anyone who becomes familar with this book will find that he has aquired an excellent background in Church history. The author intersperses the history with many brief, interesting biographies of famous people, and at the end of each chapter, he quotes briefly from a famous writing of the era, blending a medly of elements into a comprehensive historical composition that is at once brilliant and fascinating. Church History by Fr. Laux is a story of the Church unparalled in its scope, depth, variety, interest, and impact, and a book all Catholics should read, that they might understand in what manner the "mustard seed" planted by Our Lord has grown to be the greatest institution in the entire world!
