The Grand Inquisitor's Manual: A History of Terror in the Name of God
- Used Book in Good Condition
The Grand Inquisitorâ€™s Manual by nationally bestselling author Jonathan Kirsch is a provocative popular history of the Inquisition, the 12^th century reign of church-sanctioned terror. Ranging from the Knights Templar to the first Protestants, from Joan of Arc to Galileo, The Grand Inquisitorâ€™s Manual is a fascinating and sobering study of the torture and murder of hundreds of thousands of â€œhereticsâ€ in Godâ€™s nameâ€”the original blueprints for persecution originally drafted in the Middle Ages but followed for centuries afterwards, up to and including the â€œadvanced interrogation methodsâ€ recently employed at Guantanamo Bay.
