Bibliography

I have a far more extensive bibliography at the other blog, to include many books from authors like GK Chesterton and CS Lewis, along with dozens of other books I have reviewed and written about on the Middle Ages, war, and general history and political thought.

This bibliography below includes posts from both my other blog and this current one, specifically related to my Christian journey – my learning of doctrine and theology through history, and, most importantly, my desire to grow in Christ.

You will see posts without links. These have been written but either a) not yet published at the time of updating this page, or b) have been published, but I just haven’t come around to the administrative task of updating this page.
