title: Eusebius: The Church History
author:  Eusebius 
description: A masterful translation. (<i>Forum Letter</i> 2004-06-03)<br /><br />A pleasant and accessible introduction to this important resource for church history. (<i>Atlanta Constitution-Journal</i> 2004-06-03)<br /><br />A publication with enduring value. (<i>Response</i> 2004-06-03)<br /><br />A very high quality translation of a very important work. (<i>Christian Library Journal</i> 2004-06-03)<br /><br />Eminently enjoyable. (<i>Restoration Quarterly</i> 2004-06-03)<br /><br />Eusebius, as the first church historian, gave us a priceless treasure. . . . Now Dr. Paul Maier in his new translation and commentary brings this resource in its most accessible and convenient form to modern readers. (Ken Curtis <i>Christian History Institute</i> 2004-06-03)<br /><br />Far and away the best [translation] on the market. (<i>Northwest Baptist Witness</i> 2004-06-03)<br /><br />Maier has done something for ordinary Christian pastors and lay people. He's brought the earliest years of the church back to life. (Michael L. Sherer <i>Metro Lutheran News</i> 2004-06-03)<br /><br />There is no book more important to understanding the early church than Eusebius's Church History . And there is no edition more readable and engaging than this one. (Mark Galli <i>Editor Christian History Magazine</i> 2004-06-03)<br /><br />Well-translated, carefully-introduced edition of ancient texts are the lifeblood of real history. . . . Kregel's publication of a new translation of Eusebius's Church History by Paul L. Maier is, therefore, an important event. (Mark A. Noll <i>McManis Professor of Christian Thought Wheaton College</i> 2004-06-03)
