reviewed Church, Censorship and Culture in Early Modern Italy on August 04, 2018 Church, Censorship and Culture in Early Modern Italy
I wanted a book for my kids to be able to read about the truth of the Spanish Inquisition without being overwhelmed by the viciousness of it. This book tells the story admirably. It focuses on one man and his role, but there's plenty of context given to round out the situation as a whole. The facts of the matter were told, but not dramatized, and there were pictures throughout to help give an idea of the time period. It's definitely not the most exciting book, but it's straightforward and thorough, and mentions when there isn't enough factual information to reach a definite conclusion about something, or when the author is speculating vs. having historical information to back up a statement.
This book would be appropriate for probably 4th grade and up.
