""How Peter Became Pope"" is a historical and biographical book written by William Dallmann. It tells the story of how Peter, one of Jesus' disciples, became the first pope of the Roman Catholic Church. The book explores the life of Peter, from his early days as a fisherman to his calling by Jesus, his leadership among the apostles, and his eventual martyrdom in Rome. It also delves into the history of the early Church and the political and social context in which Peter lived and worked. The book is a detailed and informative account of the life of one of the most important figures in Christian history, and provides valuable insights into the origins and development of the papacy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Gustav Adolf (Gustavus Adolphus) was the Swedish king whose intervention in the Thirty Years' War was instrumental in pre- venting Roman Catholic forces from crushing the Lutheran Church. His is an inspiring tale of self-sacrificing love for Christ and His Church "Gustavus Adolphus is a hero of every nation," says Samuel Rawson Gardiner, the English historian. June 1930 is the three-hundredth anniversary of the coming of Gustav Adolf to Pomerania to defend the political and religious liberties of Sweden by saving the religious and political liberties of the oppressed Protestants in Germany.This is an epoch in history, secular and religious, and every Lutheran, every Protestant, every educated person, should know about these glorious days. "It is doubtful whether the military annals of any nation offer a period more worthy of admiration than the eighteen campaigns of the Swedish army in Germany," writes Prof. Charles Franqois Dominique de Villers.In "Gustav Adolf-The Greatest Lutheran Layman," William Dallmann (1862-1952) tells the story of the heroic Swedish king from the perspective of a 20th century Confessional Lutheran.
