Books on the history of the Catholic Church

[Porpoise]

Does anyone know of any good books on the history of the Catholic Church, written by Catholics? I am trying to find one that goes into a lot of depth and detail, not just a brief overview. Would prefer if it had photos/illustrations too.

This website is an excellent resource for any Catholic:

Defenders of the Catholic Faith | Hosted by Stephen K. Ray | Author of "St. John's Gospel", "Upon This Rock", & "Crossing the Tiber"

Lots of good articles, books etc. Steve Ray is a great Catholic theologian

Just curious why you prefer one written by a catholic? No big deal if you perfer not ro say.

It makes a difference who writes the history book. An atheist writing about the history of the Catholic Church may tell a different story than a Catholic would, or an Eastern Orthodox, or a protestant.
