History in His Hands: A Christian Narrative of the West
“A refreshing tour through familiar territory from an unfamiliar perspective. Dr. Pursell allows a convert’s vibrancy of faith to inform his historical analysis without oversimplifying it.”  —Fr. John Bartunek, author,The Better Part“Finally, we have an accessible, popular history that dares to subordinate secular history to the Christian story of salvation history. There is no other book that I could recommend as highly as an introduction to a Catholic view of human history.”  —Christopher Shannon, author,Bowery to Broadway: The American Irish in Classic Hollywood Cinema
