After the Reformation, Christians found themselves living amidst wars of religion, Enlightenment, and colonization.

Includes 50 illustrations, maps, bibliographies, and an 8-page color gallery. In this volume, the way in which lived Christianity and its practices were altered by these global changes is probed by an illustrious group of scholars led by distinguished historian Amanda Porterfield.
