Christians in Persia (RLE Iran C): Assyrians, Armenians, Roman Catholics and Protestants - Routledge Library Editions: Iran
Robin Waterfield
When it was originally published this book broke new ground in presenting one continuous narrative of the history of Christians in Persia from the second century A. D to the 1970s. The material gathered here was previously only to be found in obscure books, manuscripts and foreign periodicals.
Christians in Persia shows the intricate history of the period concerned; the personalities of the rulers and the ruled; the difficult task of the missionaries; their successes and failures and the consequences of their efforts. All this is related to the wider history of the country and to the expansion of Christianity in the East.
