Masaru
by Michael T. Cibenko
"In a manner reminiscent of Clavell's Shogun,
Masaru transports the reader to
medieval Japan with realism that delights
the senses, offering up a blend of history,
philosophy and adventure. Based on events
little known in the West, Masaru
artfully presents the faith with a
compelling synthesis of action and
dialogue....This is a must-read for anyone
who appreciates Japanese culture, lovers of
history and philosophy, or those who simply
enjoy an exceptionally well-told story." —Jeffrey

On
the Deaths of the Persecutors
A
Translation of De Mortibus
Persecutorum by Lucius Cćcilius
Firmianus Lactantius
translated by Lord Hailes [David
Dalrymple]
Called the Christian Cicero by readers
ancient and modern alike, Lactantius's On
the Deaths of the Persecutors is a
work of considerable historical import,
containing details about the Roman Empire of
the early 4th century that are found nowhere
else. In this unique work, Lactantius
created a hybrid of history and apologetics,
making a case for the truth of the Christian
religion based on the fates of those
emperors who had been the most egregious
persecutors of Christians. More...

The
Life of Saint Ambrose
A
Translation of the Vita Sancti
Ambrosii by Paulinus of Milan
translated by Sr. Mary Simplicia Kaniecka
Ambrose
of Milan is one of the towering figures of

of heretics, admonisher of emperors,
voluminous writer, worker of miracles, and
the spiritual father of other great
saints.
This biography of Ambrose was written by one
of the deacons who served under him:
Paulinus of Milan. Paulinus was encouraged

I
Am A Christian
Authentic
Accounts of Christian
Martyrdom and Persecution from
the Ancient Sources
compiled and edited by
Anthony P. Schiavo, Jr.
Christians of today face questions that
would have seemed absurd to our ancestors.
Did Jesus exist? Isn't the New Testament
just a fairy tale? Aren't the accounts of
the early martyrs just fables? These
accusations gain traction because the
average person today has practically no
knowledge of the Church's ancient past. I
Am A Christian: Authentic Accounts of
Christian Martyrdom and Persecution from
the Ancient Sources aims to remedy
this deficiency by providing a collection of
the earliest and most trustworthy
eye-witness accounts from Roman antiquity. More...

Angels
in Iron
by Nicholas C. Prata
"In addition to being
an exciting action/adventure yarn and
quite a page-turner, Angels in
Iron is valuable as a miniature
history lesson as well....This is a book
that belongs on the bookshelf of every
Catholic man, should be read by every
Catholic boy (11 or older, I would say),
and stocked by every Catholic school
library." —Latin Mass
