Synopsis: This volume tells the story of the accomplishments and failures of nations, groups, and individuals, both Catholic and non-Catholic. This text remains true to the vision of history outlined in the Second Vatican Council’s guiding document, Lumen Gentium, “The Light to the Nations.” It also fills a void in the historical education of young people today, who know little or nothing of the contributions of past ages to our civilization and Church. This vacuum of historical knowledge is not our true heritage. Ours is a culture of life and of hope, of faith, vast and deep, and rich achievements for the common good. May this textbook be one step toward the full restoration of that culture.
