Enjoyable to read. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent information about an important time period often neglected in general church history *by I***R on Reviewed in the United States on April 20, 2022* The book is well structured. It gives a good overview on each time period, additionally a detailed focus on a key person, and a discussion of a controversial issue, leaving the judgment to the reader (who by then can make a better informed decision).The time periods described are very very relevant not only for church history but also for the general history of Europe and the development of European culture.There were the Benedictine monasteries, diligently copying Christian books and classical works of antiquity, teaching agriculture and gardening, and creating islands of culture in a time of warlords.There were the monks of Ireland and Scotland who effectively christianized Europe from the North - many saints and martyrs revered in Germany were born in today's Great Britain.The Carolingian Renaissance around 800 in the "dark ages" was at least as relevant for European culture as the better known Renaissance some 600 years later, developing a new script and a reform of education with a curriculum of grammar, arithmetic and musical notation, schools by royal decree available not only to clerics and nobles but to everyone.The at times strained relations between rulers and church are described honestly including the whole mix of conflicting interests, good intentions, good and bad guys, and at times very destructive consequences.The book fills in on period of history which is usually omitted in schools and often glossed over in church history. It is very accessible, also for people who are no history freaks. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent book *by L***G on Reviewed in the United States on January 19, 2022* My family has enjoyed this book. We learned a great deal about the "Dark Ages" and the church during this time. Mr. Campbell has a way of making history interesting and this book started some great conversations in our family about this time period. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vn/products/320672656-the-church-and-the-dark-ages-430-1027-st-benedict](https://www.desertcart.vn/products/320672656-the-church-and-the-dark-ages-430-1027-st-benedict) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vietnam* *Store origin: VN* *Last updated: 2026-04-25*
