This three-volume history of the medieval Inquisition by American scholar Henry Charles Lea, first published in 1888, was firmly based on primary sources, & adopted a rationalist approach that departed from the pious tone of earlier histories of the middle ages. Lea was convinced that the Inquisition was not arbitrarily devised & implemented but was an inevitable consequence of forces that were dominant in 13th century Christian society. In Volume 2 Lea focuses mainly on the Inquisition in France, Iberia, Italy & Germany. He delves into the relationship between religion & State in the Languedoc region & describes how the University of Paris obstructed the Inquisition's activity. Lea notes that there was almost no Inquisition presence in Portugal, while in Italy sporadic popular opposition to the Inquisition was noticeable.

Henry Charles Lea's account of the Inquisition in Italy, Spain and South America was first published in 1908. Drawing on primary source material, the American historian gives a detailed account of the workings of the Inquisition and its individual tribunals in Sicily, Naples, Sardinia and Milan. He also describes the Inquisition in Malta, the Canary Islands, Mexico, Peru, New Granada and the Philippines. According to Lea the Inquisition persisted from the 16th right up to the 19th century. He demonstrates how some of the individuals entrusted with implementing the Inquisition abused their powers, and how the Inquisition in the Spanish colonies prevented the efficient running of governmental administrations. He focuses on some of the consequences of the Inquisition: Jews were banished from Naples, and there were moves to exclude new Christians from the Church in Mexico.
