Critics Review
MacCulloch not only brings a lifetime’s learning to bear on his subject, but writes with vigour, empathy and wit … about identity and memory, about the importance of myths and why historians need to challenge them. – Malcolm Gaskill * Financial Times *
All Things Made New is a serious book on a serious subject. It is written with elegance and sometimes donnish wit – Robert Tombs * The Times *
MacCulloch is … able to write authoritatively and engagingly on a remarkably diverse range of topics in the history of Christian culture and thought. – Peter Marshall * Literary Review *
