Description

After the Albigensian Crusade against the Cathars in southwestern France in 1208, a Spanish monk - who was later canonized as Saint Dominic - took action by founding a kind of secret police to eliminate the heresy - thus began the infamous Inquisition. Baigent and Leigh narrate the entire extraordinary story, progressing to the nineteenth century and showing how, after the Doctrine of Papal Infallibility in 1870, the Vatican attempted to establish new authorities that were spiritually equivalent to the Inquisition. The Inquisition offers a fascinating narrative account of one of the most influential and terrifying movements in the history of Western Europe.
