The Arian Controversy by H.M. Gwatkin

 

R.P.C. Hanson's book The Search for the Christian Doctrine of God: The Arian Controversy, 318-381 is considered by most scholars to be the modern classic and standard resource dealing with the Arian controversy. In the previous generation, two of the classics were Henry Melvill Gwatkin's books, Studies of Arianism and The Arian Controversy. The latter was a condensed and updated version of the earlier and fuller tome. Having read The Arian Controversy, I noticed a clear bias for the Trinitarian position. As a Trinitarian myself, I agree; but I wish he, as a historian, would have been a bit more objective and fair with the opposing views.
