This book shows me what I wanted to learn over fifty years ago while in college. My history teacher used a text that taught Catholic Church history in a Baptist school. I asked him why we studied this ! His answer was this was the text he was given. I had studied history in school and on my own for years before I took his class, and some time later working in his home, he said to me: I thought you, that''s me, were a fourth year student. It was my first year after military service USMC Viet Nam. This book is one Great read of History His-Story in America. It needs to be the text in all of our schools.

I love the historical hard evidence this book provides to give nay-sayers an irrefutable reproof. This book gives you a respect for the doctrines that were and are worth dying for, the spiritual hills worth defending.
