Book Description
Our Lord tells us that He came upon earth to "finish a work;" and He likewise tells us what that work was, the setting up a living society of men, who should dwell in Him and He in them; on whom His Spirit should rest, with whom His presence should abide, until the consummation of all things. For, the evening before His passion, "lifting up His eyes to heaven, He said: Father, the hour is come. I have glorified Thee on the earth: I have finished the work which Thou gavest Me to do. I have manifested Thy name to the men whom Thou hast given Me out of the world. Thine they were, and to Me Thou gavest them; and they have kept Thy word. Holy Father, keep them in Thy name, whom Thou has given Me; that they may be one, as We also are. While I was with them I kept them in Thy name.--And now I come to Thee.--I pray not that Thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that Thou shouldest keep them from evil. As Thou hast sent me into the world, I also have sent them into the world. And for them do I sanctify Myself, that they also may be sanctified in truth. And not for them only do I pray, but for those also who through their word shall believe in Me; that they all may be one, as Thou, Father, in Me, and I in Thee; that they also may be one in Us; that the world may believe that Thou hast sent Me. And the glory which Thou hast given to Me, I have given to them, that they may be one, as We also are one. I in them, and Thou in Me; that they may be made perfect in one; and the world may know that Thou hast sent Me, and hast loved them as Thou hast loved Me. "Mr. Allies completely satisfies that definition of good history given us by the Greek historian, and his method is preeminently one of 'philosophy teaching by examples.' Every well-instructed Catholic knows by faith that Jesus Christ came into the world to found a kingdom, a kingdom not of this world but spiritual and divine, a perfect polity, free from all those elements of decay which enter into every human institution, and that He gave to this kingdom a constitution capable of adapting itself to every form of human society, and of embracing in its bosom the whole world....All this the Catholic knows and believes, and the heretic and infidel denies; but Mr. Allies establishes and proves it by the powerful argument of history, showing how the internal life of the Church and the guiding of events by Divine Providence, evolved and fulfilled in a perfect sequence, the designs and direction of her Divine Founder." -The Month: An Illustrated Magazine of Literature, Science and Art "This work...was first published in 1952, and elicited the highest encomiums from the most learned portion of the Christian world. Its republication at this time, when so much is said, and so little is actually known, by persons not Catholics, of the apostolic succession, and the divine power vested in the visible head of the church, is exceedingly well timed. The book, though small in compass, contains not only all the leading incidents of St. Peter's life, but irrefutable proofs of his holy mission and supremacy in the church. Those who have any doubts of the primacy of the See of Rome, or who wish to satisfy themselves as to the extent of the power delegated to our Holy Father, should give Mr. Allies' book a careful and serious perusal." -Catholic World "Mr. Allies is known as the author of 'The Formation of Christendom.' Is it an established interpretation among Roman Catholic theologians that the 'one Shepherd of the one fold' is St. Peter? We should thought that the words applied to One greater even than the '"Prince of the Apostles.' But one learns to be surprised at nothing that Ultramontane devotion says of the Virgin, St. Peter, or the Pope." -The Spectator

Book Description
Peter's Rock in Mohammed's Flood is a series of essays examining events from the Old Testament and contextualizing them within events in history. Excerpt: "I have hitherto conducted the history of the Throne of the Fisherman built by the Carpenter's Son in unbroken succession from St. Peter to St. Gregory the Great. It is 575 years from the Day of Pentecost a.d. 29 to St. Gregory's death in a.d. 604. This period is very nearly bisected by the conversion of Constantine. The first half contains the action of the Primacy over against a hostile heathen empire."
