Definitely an enlightening read!  Even my mother (Presbyterian and well
educated in her faith) found this difficult to put down.  It's not dry reading by
any stretch, but one does have to be willing to be open minded about our old
prejudices about the Anglican faith.

Thanks Brent, for bringing these books to the fore; I'd been having trouble
trying to keep my temper a few times about some of these myths!
