Reseñas

VERY SIMPLISTIC


(3.5 stars)

The writer offers short-sketch overviews of famous religious leaders, complete with oft unsubstantiated tales of their diverse journeys. It is completely ecumenical, not attempting to classify the actions as orthodox or heretical. It is somewhat useful for a quick overview of each personage, but do not take any of the stories as completely true.


(5 stars)

It is a great book if you like information about the history of the Christian church. I thoroughly enjoyed it.
