Catholic World History Timeline and Guide

Catholic World History Timeline and Guide

Most timelines represent world history from a Protestant view, breezing over early church fathers and other people and events that receive greater attention in Catholic history texts. This timeline set includes most figures you find in other timelines plus those of especial interest to Catholics.

Brightly-colored, heavy-duty paper is cut into strips to mount on the wall. The 700+ figures are engravings, drawings, and photos, mostly from out-of-print resources. Some more recent historical event photos taken by a White House photographer have been included by special permission. Each picture (approx. 2” x 2”) is labeled with names or events and dates. These are printed with black ink on cream-colored card stock, and they may be colored in with soft colored pencils, although it isn't necessary. Patterns for additional stick figures are supplied.

The 290-page book provides instructions for constructing the timeline and using it as a teaching tool. It includes charts showing the people or events, date for location on timeline, and a brief summary of the “contribution” of the event or person. Many “summaries” are much longer than we find in other timeline books. Extra chapters on American presidents and the Papacy add much more detail on each president and Church history respectively. The book sometimes includes cross references to the Catechism of the Catholic Church, especially in the time periods corresponding to those of the Bible.
