Book Description:

City of God, composed in the early fifth century, is one of the great classics of western culture. Augustine was a teacher of rhetoric before he was bishop of Hippo on the coast of North Africa. In Books 6-10 he used all his skill to argue against those who think that many gods should be worshipped for blessings in the life to come.
