History of the Waldenses of Italy: From Their Origin to the Reformation

Excerpt from History of the Waldenses of Italy: From Their Origin to the ReformationWe shall here study the early period of Waldensian history. There is an idea with some, that its origin may be traced back to the very time of the first preaching of the Gospel; but it is important that this idea be disentangled from a confused mass Of legends. We shall find the first authentic source appearing with Waldo, and the disciples whom tradition has called by his name. From that time onward, we shall follow the sinuous course Of their followers' history down to the eve Of the Reformation.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
