The Flight From Rome

Gripped by darkness and turmoil, Europe was hungry for a spiritual awakening. Travel the continent with Sir Peer and observe how Christianity answered the call. Meet Charlemagne, the enlightened monarch who embraced the Christian faith, and St. Francis of Assisi, the remarkable nobleman who gave up his birthright and founded one of the most venerable Orders in all Christendom. See how the Papcy itself was plunged into turmoil and exiled to Avignon. and come face to face with the woman who changed the course of history, as Sir Peter introduces you to the indomitable St. Catherine of Siena, the simple nun whose miraculous vision brought the Papacy back to Rome.
