Review: Early Church Fathers: Nicene & Post-Nicene Fathers Series 2, 14 Vols.
User Review - Randy - Christianbook.comI ordered all three sets. They arrived on time well packaged with each book individually shrink-wrapped. I don't know that I will ever read every page in all 34 volumes, but they are excellent reference works. They look good and the quality of printing and binding is excellent. Read full review
