The History of the Popes from the Foundations of the See of Rome to the Present Time V1 is a comprehensive book written by Archibald Bower. This book provides a detailed account of the history of the papacy, starting from the foundation of the See of Rome to the present day. The author has meticulously researched and documented the lives and works of the popes, including their contributions to the Catholic Church and the world at large. The book covers various significant events, such as the schism between the Eastern and Western churches, the Crusades, the Reformation, and the Counter-Reformation. It also delves into the personal lives of some of the most influential popes in history, such as Gregory the Great, Innocent III, and Leo X. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of the Catholic Church and the papacy.1748. This is Volume I of VII. Bower asserted that he had been a Jesuit and a counselor of the inquisition in Italy, that he had escaped and had become a Protestant. Bower ended up in Scotland, where he was befriended by Lord Lyttelton. Through Lyttelton's influence, he was appointed librarian to the queen, and clerk of the buck-warrants. But, John Douglas, afterwards bishop of Salisbury, published proofs that Bower's story was false and that his works were plagiarized from other authors. He defended himself vigorously so far as his own story was concerned, and gradually completed his History in seven volumes. The book, which was avowedly written against the claims of the see of Rome, is considered by some to have no literary merit.
