Designed for students and educators, the book is divided into four parts that break down history into accessible segments. The book is structured to help readers grasp the key events, understand the principles of the gospel, and appreciate the historical basis for the Church's role in the world today, and helps the learner understand and comprehend the nuances of the aforementioned journey with carefully crafted review questions. **
