This is one of those books which hardly ever sells in the shop, isn’t on trend, but is absolutely, definitely, one of the best history books out there for the subject it covers. So it stays. Waiting for the right customer on the right day:
Eamon Duffy’s “The Stripping of the Altars” - Available online and in store
