Review
5 of 5 people found the following review helpful. Definitive history of medieval monasticismBy Joel HoltzThis is probably one of the most comprehensive books ever written on the early ten centuries of monastic life. Melville covers the Benedictines; Cistercians; Franciscans; Dominicans; and a few others. The longest section is on the Benedictines; and for me was the most enjoyable to read.If you're looking for a definitive resource on the monastic life and its history throughout the centuries; this is the book for you.Lay persons and history buffs will both thoroughly enjoy.
