1.What the Gospels MeantWhat the Gospels Meant
from Viking Adult
Price: $5.17

Customer Review:
Well, maybe not new since St. Augustine was writing similar commentaries 1500 years ago. What the Gospels Meant by Garry Wills moves away from the type of "Jesus books" we've seen lately. This one doesn't split hairs about Judas, isn't written by an agnostic and doesn't mention the Rapture even... more info

2.What Jesus MeantWhat Jesus Meant
from Penguin (Non-Classics)
Price: $4.88

Customer Review:
this is an astonishingly lucid yet simple book: at just over 140 pages, it richly condenses JESUS (like a good shot of espresso) all the better to stimulate and expand our appreciation and understanding.
reading it is truly like meeting JESUS for the very first time; all of the centuries-old... more info

Customer Review:
When looking at truly important, relavent historical writings especially American contributions to history one's mind almost immediately defers to the Declaration Of Independence or the Constitution.That's a given.Then comes presidential writings,inaugural addresses, etc.But one continually stands... more info

4.What Paul MeantWhat Paul Meant
from Penguin (Non-Classics)
Price: $3.15

Customer Review:
Garry Wills did a great job by writing complex Paul with easy-to-follow style of writing and related information. This book begins with the misunderstood Paul, constructed by both Christians and non-Christians. By distinguishing Paul from later epistles such as Deutero-Pauline and Pastoral Letters,... more info

5.James Madison (The American Presidents Series)James Madison (The American Presidents Series)
from Times Books
Price: $11.18

Customer Review:
This is the first book I read on Madison. I gained a knowledge about the events surrounding his presidency, but missed out on how he was personally operating within these events at times. For example, the author briefly mentions that Madison was close to death from an illness during his 2nd term,... more info

6.Saint Augustine: A Life (Penguin Lives Biographies)Saint Augustine: A Life (Penguin Lives Biographies)
from Penguin (Non-Classics)
Price: $7.87

Customer Review:
Here, as in his other works, Garry Wills gets under the surface of his subject as does no other author. His analysis of classical language, where appropriate, gives an unique insight into whomever and whatever his focus may be settled upon. This is an excellent complementary volume to Peter Brown's... more info

This book describes one man's relationship with the Holy Rosary and his attempt to tie the threads of his religious life together.

from Image
Price: $5.75

Customer Review:
The facts set forth in this book about the history of the Catholic Church, in particular about several of its leaders, were disturbing for the revelations about the extreme misbehavior and dishonesty of such leaders (Popes). The facts given were also set forth in a civil and straightforward manor.... more info

9.The Confessions of Saint AugustineThe Confessions of Saint Augustine
from Penguin Classics
Price: $7.50

Customer Review:
Garry Wills' translation of Saint Augustine's "Confessions" brings this work to life. Wills has rendered Augustine's Latin into beautifully flowing contemporary English. It is commendable that he was able to do this while preserving the personal character of this saint's life story and demonstrating... more info

10.Why I Am a CatholicWhy I Am a Catholic
from Mariner Books
Price: $1.24

Customer Review:
I read this book because I know the Papacy has contradicted itself in the past at the highest level, and I was looking for a way an honest Catholic can admit this without being a radical traditionalist in lockstep with everything the pope says, nor a radical liberal like Andrew Greene. The best part... more info
