Pope Eusebius (ad310) - Forgotten Popes No.1 by Oliver Hayes

Eusebius has been unfairly treated by history. His reign has probably been neglected because it lasted only a few months in the spring and summer of 309. However, Eusebius had to wrestle with problems that threatened to tear the Christian Church apart, and very possibly doom it to be but one religion among many in the later Classical World. There was nothing certain about the triumph of Christianity when Eusebius took over the throne of St Peter, and he knew it. 
At the time of writing 266 men have occupied the position of Bishop of Rome, or Pope. History quite rightly remembers many of these men as holy and historically significant, but there are a few who are barely known even to scholars of the Church. This series of ebooks is designed to bring these "forgotten popes" to a wider audience. Although largely forgotten today, they were significant in their time and - in some cases - have an importance out of all proportion to their reputation.
