Summary: Biased
Comment: Though the book shows some promise in the first half, it becomes increasingly biased as it moves towards the Reformation. The auhtor is a congregational minister - no surprise.
A better read would be Karl Keating's "Catholicism and Fundamentalism", Thomas Aquinas' "Summa", and The Catechism of the Catholic Church"
Rating: 2
Summary: Biased
Comment: Though the book is rather interesting in the beggining it takes a distasteful turn for the worse during the chapters on the Reformation - It is heavily biased in favor of Protestants. Let us keep in mind as well, that the author is a Congregational Minister.
A better read would the the Catechism of the Catholic Church, Augustine's City of God, or Karl Keating's Catholicism and Fundamentalism.
Rating: 5
Summary: Factual, burtally objective, a must for Christians..
Comment: If you want to find out where modern Christianity comes from, this is your source book. Well, documented, fiercly objective, and no overly unnnecessary words. Dr. Bainton has managed to make a subject that could bore readers to death, totaly fascinating reading. Every person who considers him/her self a Christian should read this. It should be on the shelf right next to their Bible.
