Description: The spread of Christianity is arguably humanity's most consequential historical epic. Christianity tells the tale through more than a hundred beautiful color maps and illustrations depicting the journey of Jesus Christ's followers from Judea to Constantine's Rome, wider Europe, and today's world of two billion Christians practicing in every land.

He is the author of Unbelievers: An Emotional History of Doubt and Protestants: The Faith That Made the Modern World.

Review Quotes: Christianity has a geography as well as a history, and this book embraces both... These maps are full of detail and give a clear and integrated visual picture of the events described...The atlas is elegantly produced on glossy pages that make it attractive and readable.--John Binns "Church Times" (11/27/2020 12:00:00 AM)
