"Church History, Volume 2 (of 3)" by J. H. Kurtz is a late 19th-century historical record that chronicles the Germano-Romanic Church between the 10th and 13th centuries, examining pivotal missionary movements, the Crusades' long-lasting effects, and the intricate power plays between the Church and different governments. The narrative begins by highlighting Christianity’s expansion throughout Europe, detailing the missionary expeditions that spurred this growth; it tells of influential characters, like Viking converts instrumental in introducing Christianity to their lands, alongside the governmental maneuvers that shaped conversion attempts, ranging from rulers wielding influence to forging critical partnerships, especially when Christianity established itself in areas such as Scandinavia, Poland, and Hungary. These events lead into accounts of the Crusades, quests dedicated to ensuring Christian control in holy territories, and their wide ranging consequences felt across European communities.
