Eusebius
The Church History
Translated by Arthur Cushman McGiffert, 1890
What this is
The first history of the Church, from Christ to Constantine’s victory in 324, by the bishop of Caesarea who lived through the last persecution. Much of what is known of the first three Christian centuries survives only because he quoted it.
How it is set
One leaf per book, with the sections numbered inside it as Long numbers them. A section of Marcus is often three lines, and a page holding three lines is not a page.
What is not here
Notes. These books have the text and nothing else at present — no map, no lives, no commentary. The Gospel of St Luke shows what an annotated book looks like on this shelf, and these will follow it. An empty heading is better than invented filler.
