The History of the Popes from the Foundations of the See of Rome to the Present Time V3 is a comprehensive book written by Archibald Bower. The book covers the history of the popes from the early days of the Roman Catholic Church to modern times. It provides a detailed account of the lives and times of the popes, their religious and political influence, and their impact on the world. The book is divided into several chapters, each one focusing on a particular period in the history of the popes. The author has used a variety of sources to gather information, including official documents, letters, and other historical records. The book is written in a clear and concise style, making it easy for readers to understand and follow the narrative. It is an essential read for anyone interested in the history of the Roman Catholic Church and the role of the popes in shaping its past and present.1748. This is Volume III 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.
