Some consider Acts of the Apostles to be a history of the early Church.
Mathew, Mark, Luke, and John give the history of Jesus. That is why they are called the Gospel, or good news. Acts gives the History of the early Christians, and the spread of Christianity throughout Israel, Asia Minor, and Europe.
Acts is the one that contains most history in a concentrated form and is the only one that could be considered as 'pure history'. The Gospels contain 'history' of a different kind as their main focus is also on the life, teachings, and miracles of Jesus. They are thus history with a very clear focus and concentrated on a relatively short period of time.
The Gospels record the history of Christ's time on earth. Acts records the history of the beginning of the church. All Bible books have SOME history in them, but the 'New Testament' books that come to mind are the gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, as they give an account of Jesus' life and ministry. Also, Acts, since it's basically the history of the early Christian congregation and the beginning of the Christian preaching work.

∙ 8y agoActs of the Apostles is the New Testament book quite widely thought of as a book of history, covering the actual history of the early Church. However, New Testament scholars see it otherwise. John Dominic Crossan (The Birth of Christianity) says that Acts of the Apostles is theology rather than history. Burton L. Mack (Who Wrote the New Testament) more bluntly says that Acts of the Apostles marks the shift in focus for second century mythmaking, away from Jesus and towards the apostles, while Uta Ranke-Heinemann (Putting Away Childish Things) says the book is a work of Propaganda aimed at Gentile Christians and Gentiles who have not yet become Christians.
Romans is in the New Testament. It is the sixth book of the New Testament and follows the Acts of the Apostles.
